The days seem to dissolve into each other now that are getting used to this Shelter-In-Place order in San Francisco. I have been working from home as much as I can, it is strange not seeing my co-worker/ friends at Berkeley Lab, but there is not a lot or work a photographer can do remotely. […]

A Year Ago
I found this very good advice printed inside a subway tunnel in Melbourne, Australia. It was about a year ago, visiting my brother who lives in Sydney. Now I have no idea if we will be able to see him for some time. So will have to settle for looking at photos for now. Everything […]
Not Going Anywhere
One of the best bits of advice I have read about keeping your sanity while sitting at home while under a Shelter-In-Place, or similar, order is to make a schedule for your day and finish all of the projects you never seem to have time to do. One of the projects I keep not getting […]
Where Have I Been?
I have a new job! More correctly, it was a new job, a year ago. I realized I have not updated this site in over a year. But, I have been busy. Just
Very Unhealthy Air
On my way back from a photo shoot I took a short detour to Twin Peaks to see how bad visibility is when the weather reports state the air is “Very Unhealthy”. The view had its usual groups of people doing selfies with the San Francisco in the background…. but there was one problem. You […]
It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Mars – Alternate Title – Slow Motion Apocalypse

I remember having heated discussions about favorite colors when I was younger, but like the questions “what is your favorite band?” or “what is your favorite song”, the answer is always “it depends.” In case you were wondering, I do not have a […]
When You Least Expect It
I have mixed feelings about people putting dogs in strollers. On the one hand, it is pretty cute, on the other hand it is kind of silly. Ok, Cute wins, just look at the dog in the photo above. Melts even my cat loving heart. And while I am on the subject of dogs, I […]

The Dog Ate My Homework
Somehow the text for my most recent post did not make it onto the site, just the photos. The post that should have been included with the photos from yesterday was something about climate change. But, I really did not have any specific insights, better you read what actual journalists have written about what actual […]
