    All in a Day’s Drive & Walk

    We drove to Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park in Oakland, walked around, took photos. Simple as that.

    César Chávez Park, Berkeley, CA

    I was walking in César Chávez Park and came across this couple on a bench. The sunlight through the clouds reflected on the water and I knew it was perfect for a photo. I didn’t intend to take photos on this walk—the light was flat and dull, but I brought my camera along just in […]

  • Sidewalk Hieroglyphics

    Sidewalk Hieroglyphics

    They’re everywhere. Arrows in fluorescent orange pointing in all directions. Walking stick figures. Cryptic numbers. What do they all mean? Beneath our feet lie underground water lines, sewer lines, gas lines, power lines, telephone lines, cable tv lines, and who knows what else. When excavation is needed, utility workers mark the sidewalks to prevent accidents. […]

  • Geologic Artistry at Arches and Canyonlands National Parks

    Geologic Artistry at Arches and Canyonlands National Parks

    I have an art assignment for you. Your medium is buried sandstone. Your tools are sunlight, wind, rain, and snow. You have 65 million years to create something astonishing. Get going.

    Photo Meandering #1

    Some call it “street photography.” I meander, I take pictures, sometimes with my cell phone and sometimes with my Fujifilm X-Pro3, sometimes in color and sometimes in black and white. My goal is to look and discover the world around me, the humorous and the sad, the blessed and the tragic. I look for color, […]

    Artists at Work #2 – Michelle Fillmore

    This is the second of a series of photographs of artists I know who live and work in the San Francisco Bay Area. Michelle Fillmore is an up-and-coming photorealistic painter who works in a downstairs studio at our home. She was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada; her paintings reflect the culture of her […]

  • Salt Point State Park

    Salt Point State Park

    We recently spent four days camping at Salt Point State Park, where six-thousand acres of diverse forests mingle with astonishing geology and rugged coastline about 100 miles north of Oakland. No showers and foggy nights left us worn out, but it was a good weariness, and good friends joined us the final day. Photographing nature […]
