Port of Oakland
June 7, 2005
Just a little shorty for you today. Sorry I haven’t posted lately I’ve been rather tied up. (I was thinking through this recently) there have been about 25 weekends this year, and I have had to work over 20 or 21 of them, I’m a little worn out, er thin, but not actually thin) These […]

Abandoned Building and Manhattan Bridge
February 14, 2008
I realized after looking through these last several pictures from Brooklyn that i haven’t really ever made a series of images of a city before, i really enjoy it. Seems to me like the same basic rules apply to both uninhabited and inhabited areas. At least i just walk around and try to get the […]

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 […]

Bridal Veil Falls – Yosemite National Park
April 22, 2007
I’ve spent the week processing and scanning pictures from our last trip to yosemite… It had been a while, more than 6 months i think, since i’ve been out there. This was the first time i’ve ever been to yosemite where the weather could be considered bad. It was cold, windy and rained pretty much […]

Weeping Willow – Washington Square Park
April 9, 2005
Shaking in the wind this tree looks like it’s made of cotton. Many new digital cameras have a built in filter to block infrared light. Seems that the new CCDs/CMOS sensors are super-sensitive to IR. Without a filter there to block the unnecessary IR your color pictures look strung out (sort of like those ones […]

YNP: Yosemite Falls
April 25, 2005
The lower falls here are same ones that were in the previous picture, the upper falls you can see above are greatly affected by the wind. We hiked to the top of this mountain on Saturday. It’s more than 2000 vertical feet acheived over 3.6 miles. You can do the math if you want; what […]

Mountain Stream No. 1
January 18, 2006
On the way back down the mountain we stopped for a little while at a mountain stream. I nearly fell in about 4 times trying to stand in such a way that permitted focusing. I made it out with dry feet and all cameras intact. I did manage to nearly fall down a slippery hill […]

Glen Aulin Lodge – YNP
August 27, 2007
The main building at Glen Aulin is a large tent. In this tent – like all of the high-sierra camps (or at least the 2 that i’ve been to) – a lot of things take place. When you arrive at camp you walk into this tent and check in with the camp manager (Tim). He […]

The Dude Motel – West Yellowstone, MT
April 6, 2008
I didnt really see all that many dudes hanging out at the hotel. I dont know if it was because there was a snow drift 14′ tall surrounding the hotel or because the wind was blowing at about 35 mph. Theres something very out of place about this hotel in this little town. I came […]

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 […]

Where’s my toothpaste?
April 25, 2005
Here’s a little time-lapse of Jason and Wendy discussing the location of their tooth-paste. You have pretty much 2 choices of dwellings in Curry Village (That’s the name of the particular “town” inside of Yosemite where we stayed). There’s the perma-tent (a wooden platform on the ground with canvas sides and a roof – tent […]

Off of Third St – Warehouse Window
November 12, 2007
Wow – so… yes – it’s been a while since i put anything up. Over the last month or so i became engrossed in a couple of other things. Specifically – i studied for and passed my technician class and general class amateur radio exams so now i’m a licensed radio operator. I also have […]

Jason Shooting Half Dome
September 20, 2005
Sunday morning before we left we decided to cruise up to the top of Glacier Point. Glacier Point has a spectacular view of the entire valley below, but is unfortunately overrun with tour buses, and the cargo they carry. There is a nice paved path area going out to the point complete with full bathroom […]

Washington Square Park, San Francisco
April 11, 2005
Looking south into Washington Square Park the sky seemed much more omnious with an infrared filter strapped to the front. (although a couple of hours later i got totally soaked) For some reason all of north beach was deserted Sunday morning… it may have been the fact that daylight savings went into effect in the […]

One From The Vault
August 2, 2007
A couple of years ago (September ’05) Jason and I took off for Yosemite one weekend. We packed the car full of medium and large format cameras, related equipment and a couple of sleeping bags and left after work on a Friday evening. Jason had rented a couple of 8×10 lenses to play with and […]

Jen and Deneb at Chrissy Field
April 10, 2005
See these two? they’re getting married in about 4 months… Today we memorialized their engagement in pixels, (and silver). Maybe i’ll post one of those when they get back from the lab. Chrissy Fields was pretty much packed this afternoon. People everywhere, dogs everywhere, kids everywhere etc… We camped out right in front of the […]

Near the Point Reyes Beach
February 27, 2006
We took a drive up to Point Reyes Station Saturday morning and ended up on an Elk reserve that I never knew existed. The Elk reserve is on land inhabited by a family who has apparently live there since the late 1800s. Elk all over the place. This is a photograph of their barn. (the […]

El Capitan
March 8, 2008
One of the things that always strikes me about being in Yosemite Valley is the enormousness of El Capitan. I mean, everything there is spectacular. The walls of every side of the valley tower above, but El Capitan is just plain huge, and what makes it even more pronounced is that you can walk right […]

Bridal Veil Falls Runoff
May 26, 2008
We just returned from the Strawberry Music Festival which took place up near the Hetch Hetchy. The weather was no friend to us though as the temperature was about 40 degrees and rainy (hard rain mostly) the entire time we were there. That could have been ok had we not been prepared for 80 degrees […]
