posting will continue

Until morale improves. Seriously, I just realized I’m almost 4 months behind posting photos, which is a stretch, even for me. We will get caught up by christmas, or therabouts.

Pride in San Fransisco isn’t a lot different than pride in OKC… wait, who am I kidding? It’s the difference between a firecracker and a supernova. It’s the difference between 5000 and 100000 people. There’s a lot going on, plenty of crowds to get lost in, plenty to see and do. Just the people watching is pretty awesome. People of all stripes, out and proud. Whole parts of the city are closed off to traffic, and open to everything else. Which, incidentally, I didn’t see much of. People make a big deal about a couple naked guys, walking around, but here, that’s just another tuesday. Lots of street preformances, though, lots of yelling, food, drinking, dancing on lightposts, things you really don’t see every day. I was happy to see the support for Chelsea Manning. I hope she gets some much deserved freedom, sooner rather than later.

Power lines

There’s something very much of my generation of photographers about doing a composition study at a car accident scene. On the other hand, nobody was hurt, and it’s really a pretty commonplace thing, so maybe it’s appropriate to be a little blasé.

the first four off the top

These are just the first four images off the top of the queue. Only a little editing. I remember some of the context, except for the first one. I have no clue why I was walking in Chinatown just past dusk.
