Quail Spots
Today has made for a relaxed birthday. For breakfast - pancakes and bacon. For lunch - quail egg salad. For dinner - lamb shanks.
2010.01.30 - Fillmore Market
Fillmore Market
In the past I have written about the farmers market in Alemany. This is another great farmers market (http://www.thefillmoredistrict.com/dss_pages/dss_farmersmarket.html). It is quite a bit smaller than the Alemany market but you can still find everything you need.

Swift
I took this with the camera phone while riding shotgun. It is rainy in San Francisco and it made for some ideal moody lighting in the Presidio's 'eucalyptus forest'.
2010.01.27 - Interiors
Winding Down
Patterns and Light
I love the feeling natural wood gives to an interior. It can be formal, informal, ecclectic, (anything really) and still give depth and warmth. I was in Pacific Heights today and snapped these two shots from the same house . . . what a contrast.
2010-01-26 - Rough Life
Rough Life
I had a good time at a Meetup.com meetup for the San Francisco SmugMug Photographers group (http://www.meetup.com/SanFranSMUG/) where Lisa Wiseman (http://www.lisawiseman.com/) presented on a variety of things ranging from how she markets herself to how she sees the world. Lisa takes some fantastic photos and it was great to hear her perspective.

Porcelain
I love old bathrooms. The hexagonal tile, the clunky sinks the cast iron tubs . . . good things.
2010.01.24 - Left Hanging
Left Hanging
I was putting up crown molding today and got a little tired (and frustrated). Thus I left the hammer hanging.
2010.01.20 - Speeding Lights
Speeding Lights
I snapped this photo of cars driving in downtown San Francisco rain. I like how the gum on the road adds texture.
2009.01.18 - Wet Wellies
Wet Wellies
Today is the first day of the big Norther California storm(s). My car started to get flooded . . . weird as it was parked on a hill slope . . . and I ran out to save it in my wifes Wellies (a tight fit). On the way a car splashed me and I had to wade through a couple feet of water, which soaked me. When I got back home I had to pour the water out of the wellies. Good times.
2010.01.16 - Model Shoot
I attended an off camera flash workshop today and had a great time. Here is a low-res sampling of photos I took:
Laura
Michael
Lindsay
Thank you so much to all of the models (Lindsay, Laura & Michael). Also big kudos to Christine who instructed us.
The group I shot with consisted of Nikon users. It was great teaming up with Ira & Lorrie. Their account can be found at: http://lightcipher.blogspot.com/2010/01/meetup-fun.html
The workshop I attended was through a Meetup.com group called 'Off camera flash photography'. A link to this group can be found here: http://www.meetup.com/off-camera-flash/
Thank you Christine Krieg for leading us (http://www.cksworld.com/, http://www.cksweddings.com/)

Vines
(Yountville, California)
I was at a job site in Yountville today when I briefly stopped to stick my camera out a car window to snap this photo. Yountville is a great little town that is sure to have something for those seeking epicurean delights (http://www.yountville.com/).
2010.01.13 - Side Light
Side Light
This is another experiment with light writing. A fellow photo junkie recently started a blog and his first photo was done with multiple lights (http://robvanharken.blogspot.com/). I tried using multiple lights but they all ended up looking the same . . . I am going to have to figure that one out. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy these spooky looking images of the side table I featured in one of my earliest posts. FYI, these images are best viewed large . . . just click on one of them. Cheers.
