Last night, I was walking down third to get to Garaje. Normally I wouldn’t go that far for dinner, but I had time to kill. I got to mission and third to find third completely blocked, including the sidewalk. The police seemed to have their hands full dealing with irate conference goers and drunk people (but I repeat myself), so I didn’t ask them what was going on. I went around, New Montgomery to Howard. I walked down a mostly empty third street sidewalk, and found that the cops were turning people back at Folsom too. The whole street empty, traffic backed up on third from being redirected.

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.

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.

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!

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