Expired Fuji Neopan 400

 

 

Jack London Square

Pacific Coast

Chinese New Year

What happens when you make a Saturday trip to the city and there's a celebration in the streets?  You make a detour!  Luckily, this one in particular coincided with the Chinese New Year celebration and parade in San Francisco.  The excitement was immeasurable since I had thought that it had been the weekend before.  Traipsing through the streets of Chinatown, here are some of the sights to be seen.

Neopan City

After a particularly arduous semester of graduate school, I have been able to finish and develop the roll of Fuji Neopan that had been too long ignored.  These were taken over the last several months of residing in The Bay.

got woods?

Excursion to Muir Woods not too long ago.  Found time in a moment of procrastination to edit and post some snaps.
 

To Market

My bounty from Saturday's Berkeley Farmers' Market: heirloom carrots, red potatoes, summer squash, radishes, tomatoes, and two of the most delicious peaches to have ever been grown.  Some of these went into a downright delicious dinner last night, and the remainder will be enjoyed for the rest of the week.  That is, until I can return next week and plunder the riches of California's locally farmed produce even more.

nineteen

 

Greetings all, I would like to extend myself in saying that my more than evident absence from my blog has not gone in vain.  The last several weeks have ushered quite a change, and the next several months will give rise to a tremendous amount of the same.  There are but nineteen (or twenty, depending on how much I procrastinate :P) days left until my adventure westward.  I recently returned from another trip to Berkeley, California equipped only with my iPhone for snaps.  Although I was somewhat relieved that I hadn't brought my camera on the trip, it was a bit strange not to be able to take a proper photograph.  That being said, here are some of the photos from along my latest journey to the Pacific coast, from Memorial Glade and the redwood trees of the UC Berkeley campus, to the heart sculptures of San Francisco's Union Square.  

In an Instant

Berkeley and San Francisco in an instant.  From the Albuquerque Sunport to the Berkeley Hills, and several spots in between.
