Photo 365 - Day 336 (Emergency)

Day 336 (June 4th, 2011)
Title: Emergency

It's been a bit of a long and mental exhausting week, and I'm afraid we are only half way through it.  Recently a family member suffered a major medical condition, so we had to pack-up and move to Colorado for a little bit.  I was able to quickly pack my small "point-and-shoot" camera and small laptop, so I'm certainly going to give it my best shot to complete my Project 365 by July 4th, but depending on how things go, it might be a bit late.  I'm sure everyone understand that this project, was important and fun, has to take a back-seat (as with everything else) while this emergency is happening.  Both Theresa and I want to thank those of you who've sent messages and good thoughts, and we hope things will become more stabilized soon.

Day 321 (May 20th, 2011)
Title: Idle Flower

At first, I thought: Hey, look at that, the city is try to look nicer by putting up flowers on the light posts.  How lovely!".  Then, while waiting for folks to come out yet another random store that was selling the EXACT same t-shirts as the other 5 stores, I noticed, if you look just the right way (and by "right way" I mean the want that say, any normal person driving a car might look), the flowers completely block the "Don't Idle Your Car Otherwise We Will Ticket Yo Ass!" sign.  So, in essence, what was learned was: The city parks department in San Francisco really hates people (especially drivers). 

Subject: Lamp post with "conveniently" placed flowers.

Enjoy!

Day 313 (May 12th, 2011)
Title: Fisherman's Wharf

By law, if you have a camera anywhere near you, you are required to take a picture of the sign at Fisherman's Wharf.  It doesn't even matter if it's your camera, just grab some random tourist's camera and shoot a picture.  Trust me, they'll thank you for it later.

Photo 365 - Day 152 (Exit Only)

Day 152 (December 2nd, 2010)
Title: Exit Only

We were walking around Berkeley near 4th street, and I saw this old, abandoned building and fencing.  I saw this mangled fence "door" with its "Exit Only" sign skewed, and my first thought was: "Dang, they must have wanted to get out of there really badly!"  The way that the metal is bent and twisted, it almost looks like it was made from aluminum or other soft material, not steel. 

I think this is one of those shots that for some reason, I saw something interesting in it, but when viewed by others they might think I'm just a bit "off".  Still, there's always tomorrow! 

Enjoy!
