This pirate statue is both funny and deeply thought-provoking, but you have to look closely to figure out why…

Did you spot it right away? I know, right? Two peg legs, two hook hands, two parrots, and two eye-patches. It takes a moment to sink in. I mean, obviously, it is humorous. But once you begin to ponder the … Continue reading

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

Whoops… I totally lied to you…

I said that I was, for a change, going to post all the photos from my adventure in San Francisco yesterday in the order in which I took them… except for that very first picture of the human skull in … 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

This photo pretty much sums up my adventure in San Francisco yesterday…

Because it makes no sense, and it is funny and confusing at the same time. I mean, what is it exactly? A skull in a bunny costume… in front of a Catholic church. I am a little hung over, and … 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… the final chapter…

These are the last… and the best… of the photos I took the other day. I know, I am rushing these posts together, but I am falling behind… So I will probably do one more weird art post before I … Continue reading

Hey look, it’s a completely different sunset!

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

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

Well, we all know that after a day or two of chopping wood and editing novels and whatever else I happen to be doing at my mom’s house in the Bay Area, I start to miss my dog, Shiloh. So … Continue reading
