Thanks to everyone’s suggestions (including some write-ins over email), I had a great time in San Francisco! Thursday night Matt and Marta surprised me with pickup from the airport and a late night Thai food run. On Friday, I hit up Blue Bottle Coffee and got some personal stuff taken care of. Then rode the…

Even now, I still love gazing at the moon. It takes light 1.3 seconds (on average) to go from the moon to me. So close, yet so far. I took this picture with The Beast.

Photography is my hobby, not my job, so I can afford to pick and choose what I want to shoot. One of the reasons I took this job was that the prime location was to shoot from the top of the top of the Space Needle. Yes, the very top. Also, Mike and Tiffany are…

During all my travels last year, I did get to do many fun things, such as attending the awesome wedding of Lance and Nicole! I’ve known Lance for several years and he’s one of the most interesting and funny guys I know. He’s also done some amazingly cool things like going on a mission trip…

I spent some significant amount of time (significant for me at least) in Oklahoma last May. I also survived some major weather phenomenon again: From www.srh.noaa.gov:Several tornadic supercell thunderstorms developed over parts of western and and [sic] much of central Oklahoma on May 24, 2011, with extensive damage occurring over many areas of central Oklahoma.…
