I know, I know, I am making you sit through multiple days of multiple posts full of multiple photos of one, single day in my life, and I’m not even mixing it up with any of my weird Photoshop posts or amusing rants and rambling observations, but trust me, the pace is picking up, and you must admit, at the very least, that I do know how to have an adventure day…

Yes, that picture was taken from a moving car… but at least, this time, I wasn’t the one driving it. It was Big Johnny in the driver’s seat. Do you remember who big Johnny is? I feel like I have … Continue reading

Okay, so there I was in San Francisco…

I was admiring the giant model of Alcatraz island and its famous prison, and I noticed that big canon you can see in the background above. Now, I am an amateur military historian by nature, and I knew what it … Continue reading

I told you I was going to be all up in San Francisco’s business… district…

Ironically, as much as I do like the joke in the title, I wasn’t actually supposed to end up in the Embarcadero portion of San Francisco at all. The original plan was to meet up with my friends somewhere else, … Continue reading

Well, obviously, all sunsets are completely different… that is what is so cool about them. But I did drive to a new spot to take that photo. It started, as so many things do, with a plan… and like most … Continue reading

In which I attempt to take that one, perfect picture of a dog, using nothing but my mad skillz as a photographer… and, you know, the fact that I have a good zoom lens, and because my camera is digital, I can take as many photos as I want and just delete the bad ones, oh, and also because of the huge size the photos are saved in, I can just crop them how I want, and remove the bad parts… part 3…

Yup, still looking to capture that perfect moment in a dog’s day… like when my new friend Romeo suddenly realized that his human wasn’t holding on to the leash. They took the leash off, and he met some doggie friends… … Continue reading

Okay, is that high fog or low clouds???

Well, I am back visiting my mom in the Bay Area again, and I did my ‘getting up insanely early to miss the Los Angeles and Bay Area traffic thing’ again. I just have a few pictures I took, as … Continue reading

No, that isn’t a sunset, that is a sunrise, I said I was done with sunsets…

I took these in the Central Valley of California on my way back to San Diego from the Bay Area. I had already been driving for nearly three hours before the sun came up. I even pulled over at a … Continue reading

It was one of those kinds of evenings…

Sunset was drawing nigh… I was sitting in my mom’s living room, where I am sitting now as I type this, trying to decide if the sunset would be worth taking pictures of from my favorite view spot way up … Continue reading
