Cat in the Window


There's something about the light in winter, late afternoon, Missouri that you rarely see out here in California.

Fall Color


Every time I take a photo like this people say stuff like, "Why are you looking at those dead leaves?" Little do they realize...

Solar Tradeshow


The 23rd European Union Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference in Milan, Italy

I love this photo because:
1. The giant inflatable sun is shining on the LCD solar panels (and this booth is out of control)
2. The cocky businessman in the center foreground is probably making a deal that will alter the future of the PV industry (or making plans for dinner, take your pick)
3. The Italian booth babes (in yellow) are bored out of their minds

Carnivorous Plants


Pitcher plants trap insects that fall inside, then digest them and absorb the nutrients. Yum!

I take relatively few photos of strangers, but when I walked into a convenience store in Lhasa this little girl started pointing at my camera and saying "picture! picture!" then struck the cutest post I have ever seen. So here she is:

It always feels like cheating to take pictures at the De Young because you can't say "Look what I saw and captured for you," it's more "Look at this beautiful thing someone designed... I took a picture of it."

There have been complaints...

So in response to peer pressure I will get over the fact that the photos are not as large as I would like them to be and post anyway.

*If anyone knows about web development for blogs, please talk to me*
I have great ideas for how I would like The Overlook to look, but lack of skills to make it happen or time to acquire those skills.
