Jason on Mt. Tam
January 17, 2006
On Saturday, er Sunday, we climbed to the top of Mt. Tam. Actually we drove to the top, ate some frou-frou sandwiches we’d brought from the city and then walked along a paved trail around the top of the mountain. We did go off trail though for a little bit to get this amazing view. […]

Frozen Goose Creek ii
April 8, 2008
It appears that things were starting to thaw out by the time I arrived. That piece of ice is about 2 and a half feet thick and earlier in the winter was the surface of the stream.. I’ve got a bunch more snowy, frozen Montana and Yosemite images to go before we change gears into […]

Mountain Stream No. 2
January 18, 2006
Here’s another take on the mountain stream. As I worked my way up-stream I found it more and more interesting. If I go back though I’d wear shoes I could stand in the water with and i’d bring a stop-watch. I had no clock with a second-hand and i’m not so good at measuring 30 […]

Joshua Tree National Park
March 19, 2007
I managed to make a visit to Joshua Tree National Park this past week. The sun was bright and the atmosphere thin which is what i’m going to blame the slight overexposure on. (that or the dehydration and threat of leaping scorpions). I’ve got a bunch of stuff from the past week coming up – […]

Humboldt Redwood State Park
January 22, 2008
I posted two of these shots from the Humboldt Redwood State Park. This is one of my favorite state parks in California – not that i’ve been able to visit all of them, but i’m pretty sure that if i was able to this would still be at the top of the list. If you’ve […]

Neil Armstrong Olson
May 15, 2005
This weekend we ventured to the moon (that’s the earth-rise you see Jason pointing at). He neglected to bring his space-suit so could only stay outside of the ship for about as long as he could hold his breath, and due to the lack of air-pressure he’s ballooned up bigger than Britney Spears. The doctors […]

That shadow in the lower-left corner really bothers me… how about you? discuss!

Yosemite Valley – The Semi-Frozen Merced River
February 24, 2008
I started putting up images from our brief trip to New York about a month ago (i can’t really believe it’s been a month of New York but it has – or will be in 2 days). Over the course of that month i made two different trips – one to Yosemite Valley and another […]

Mountain Spring II – Trinidad CA
December 3, 2007
I don’t really know what to say about this one… i like the way the running water in the background plays off of what i think is a large tree root. Either that or laws of gravity aren’t working as expected. The moss that covered every surface short of the running water was quite impressive […]

Large Brick Wall – Brooklyn
February 19, 2008
I made a different picture of this wall that i happen to like a little better but it doesn’t really do a good job of showing the fading old advertisements that are visible straight on. My intent was to include only the brick-face but it seems that every time i push the edge of the […]

Bixby Bridge – Rt 1
April 8, 2007
At the Bixby Bridge – about 1/4 mile north from where we stopped and were overtaken by fog – everything was clear. I took the opportunity to climb down the ridge a little bit and explore the hillside. Aside from being covered in tourist trash (cigarette boxes and dorrito bags) it’s pretty cool. I think […]

Field of Grass Near Fort Ross
May 18, 2005
Near Fort Ross is the aforementioned tall grass that induced copious amounts of sneezing. See – i wasn’t joking – that’s some serious California Grass. (not this serious though.)

Along the Embarcadero
April 7, 2005
In the closest lane is a beautiful MUNI hybrid bus. (You can’t really see it because it’s in stealth mode)In the background, obscured by the palm tree is the Gap building. This is the birth place of all things somewhat trendy. Sometimes near there there’s an awful smell eminating from the drains. Turns out it’s […]

Bridalveil Falls Runoff
July 14, 2008
I’ve been absent for a while, sorry about that. I’ve been trying to figure out my next project and am coming up short. I think i might try to do one of the other ideas I had for my SoFoBoMo project. There are 2 or 3 others I really liked but one that I would […]

Above Berkeley CA: Tilden State Park
May 1, 2005
Beautiful Tilden State Park, just about 500 yards from Inspiration Point I don’t know what the deal is with inspiration point. It’s great and all don’t get me wrong, there are rolling meadows as far as the eye can see, and even cows – but there’s not really any room to take it in. You […]

Mountain Spring – North of Trinidad CA
December 1, 2007
I’m going to try to go through all of my stuff from last week in (somewhat) chronological order. I was able to scan and prepare 19 images the last few evenings including the one from the other day. I don’t know that i’ll get around to posting all of them but… On thursday we pretty […]

Trinidad Lost Coast – Looking North
January 17, 2008
It’s right around Trinidad on the way up the California coast where there starts to be large rock formations out in the ocean. I think it’s one of the most spectacular things about this part of the coast. This eventually winds its way up the coast into Oregon and on to Washington. This particular view […]

Bridalveil Runoff
June 6, 2008
Another part of the runoff of Bridalveil falls. Towards the end of the summer this is a large rocky area that you can climb all over and even all the way up to where the falls break, in the winter/spring it’s hard to navigate without getting a case of wet-foot, or pick up a clinger. […]

Port Townsend, WA
May 14, 2008
I haven’t posted in a while and I have no real excuse, but i’ve been working hard on my Photo Book which i’m getting further along in completing. I don’t know how to put the pictures out on ebokeh.com as there are quite a few of them. Overall this is a pretty time-consuming process and […]

YNP: Burned Trees in the Valley
October 17, 2005
We went out to Yosemite again this weekend. I don’t know what it is but no matter how much i’ve tried i always end up taking pictures of half-dome. It’s an amazing thing, but i’ve been trying to find other items of note in the valley. This weekend found the leaves about one to two […]

I Still Can’t Find the Right Pen
April 16, 2005
The Ferry Building is pretty much right across the street from where i work. Since i spend more of my waking time at work you could say that I spend most of my time looking at the ferry building, which is not necessarily a bad thing (The ferry building part) I was trying to capture […]

Specs – North Beach
December 6, 2006
Saturday night – fast-forward about 1 hour. Specs is a bar in North Beach with a lot of (interesting) history. The word i’ve heard (please take this with a grain of salt) is that it’s connected to the strip bar (now Larry Flynt’s Hustler club, or some such nonsense) upstairs via an old, now unused […]
