Boscoe in the Museum Garden
Giant Banana Slug behind Bolinas Market
I think that's Josh messing with public property again
I really like this one a lot!
Just a little bit of light can make all the difference in an image, an idea, etc. All the more reason to pay attention to the details.
Early morning negative tide exposes sand and barnacled rocks. Small Southwest Swell. It got pretty good with the mid-day high tide.
This matte grey chevy pick-up was parked just off of Bryant St. in the inner Mission Saturday evening on my way to Universal Cafe for dinner. A classic ride in grey primer.
Max and I were on our way to check out a new house with ocean view in Miramar yesterday afternoon when this brilliant green pond came into view. The iPhone does an awesome job with impressionistic images like this.
Chris Johanson, the San Francisco Mission school artist, put on a great show last night with 17th and Capp at the SFMOMA
with an eclectic crowd, great music and fun vibe. Max and I enjoyed the scene, checked out some of the current exhibits and generally enjoyed the space. Thank you SFMOMA and Mario Botta for an awesome evening. Here are some images.....
Yesterday I cooked up some BBQ for friends here in El Granada, Jessicca Wabbit and Kenny Naughton brought a great bottle of Marziano Abbona Terlo Ravera 1999 Barolo (took a couple of hours to open up but was awesome later), Mark Haas brought a Joseph Swan 2003 Russian River Zinfandel (was big and juicy with 16.6% Alc.) and Tom Ingalls and his new friend Jaune brought a Campion 2005 Pinot Noir (was very nice and was a good match for both the Pork Loin and the Wild Salmon from Oregon.) A good time was had by all.
Expecting to see some nice clean peaks out there later today when the tide fills in. We are finally getting a little south pulse in the water. There are some good sand bars out there from all the big swell we have had this past El Nino winter.
This week we had a lot of crazy stormy weather and finally yesterday, the sky started to clear. It was not the hard bright light of a clear blue sky, but the soft grey light that illuminates every nook and cranny of a scene like this. My favorite light for almost any subject.
Walking the dog Boscoe along the Half Moon Bay harbor trail this afternoon, I couldn't help but notice this bizarre still life of rusted lamp-post, found drift wood and odd metal stakes. For some reason it reminded me of Picasso's Guernica. It's not really similar at all!
