behind the new sfmoma

somewhere between tresspass and wandering, just waiting for my ride. i’m super excited for this thing to finally open, may 4th (so the security gaurd told me). i’ve had a membership the whole time we’ve lived here, even while it was closed for this expansion. people who think the new building isn’t gorgeous: you haven’t looked at it.

a small shift in perspective

This is a set of photos that I shot the other day, after having lunch with sophia. The first photo is just something I shot on the way, and quite liked. The second two I shot after, walking on that broad area above the falls at Buena Vista gardens. I thought to myself, “What a nice change in perspective,” and followed that with trying to think of how to change perspectives when I was walking down the street? I remembered the flippy screen on my camera did live view and I could use it as a waist level finder. It worked surprisingly well. Not exactly like having a waist level groundglass, more like a sport finder, where you know mostly where the camera is pointed, and what’s in the frame.

monterrey bay aquarium

These photos are from today! I’m trying this new thing where I blog from my phone. So if this looks weird, that’s why. We’re in a bar having a beer and resting our feet. Enjoy the photos!

goruck gr1 is a bad bag

My EDC, for illustration, and because I can. Is it so much to ask of a bag to hold this stuff?

chinatown + northbeach walk

I work about ten minutes’ walk from columbus av., which forms a border between the two neighborhoods. Lunchtime, friday, I decided to go on a bit of a walk, take some pictures. It’s a rich vein, one of those places you could make a decent essay just walking around, taking in surface impressions for a couple weeks. There’s a whole project to be done just on the tourists, but I’m not sure I have the fortitude to be around them for that long. On the other hand, they’re fair game.
