Lighted Path

Today was a miserable day. I had a migraine all day. Finally, I just gave in, took my prescription, and went to bed to sleep it off.
On the hardware front, my backup hard drive for photo backups became unformatted according to Windows. I have tried multiple utilities to see if they can restore the data but no go so far. If Chip cannot recover the data, I lose all my raw images since the beginning of this year.
Ok, enough whining. Tomorrow will be a better day. It is Friday after all.
For some very intriguing beach shots, check out this image.
High Fire Danger Today
 |
The news announced that today is high fire danger because of the dried grasses that are abundant this time of year combined with high winds. I have heard that our hills used to be green year round with the native bunch grasses. However, the early Spanish settlers introduced European grasses for their cattle. These non-native grasses replaced about 99% of the native bunch grasses and now are hills are brown (or golden depending on your viewpoint) in the fall. We are at the end of our dry season. Our rains start in about a month or so.
Warning – Smoking Area
 |
This one just fell together tonite when I sat down and said "Hmmm…what to post?". I looked at a Coyote Creek shot that was not posted and plopped it on top of this grab shot of a hotel Smoking Area near my work.
No Parking Anytime
 |
Well, this is another iffy. This is a scene from Coyote Creek overlaid with a grab shot from our recent museum visit.
Fall Grasses
 |
Tonite, I went for a short hike along the Coyote Creek trail. It has been way too long since I have been hiking. This picture is a little deceiving because the brown grasses are much more common right now with splashes of green still hanging in there.
Tonite, I have the first draft of my About Me page posted. I still have the hard part of getting a photo of myself made. I still want to add a footer to the site.
2nd Street near Market, SF
 |
Another quick grab shot taken when Chip and I were returning to the train after visiting the Edward Weston exhibit at SF MOMA.
One Montgomery Street
 |
One Montgomery Street is the bank across the street from my work in downtown San Francisco. The overlaid scene is from Golden Gate Park this spring.
Hobart Building Reflected
 |
This is the view from my office window. This is the Hobart Building reflected in the building across the street.
Metreon Terrace
 |
This is another grab shot from Labor Day weekend. I do not know why no one was enjoying the terrace. I did try every Photoshop trick that I could think of to straighten this out. The best that I could do was correct the verticals and a few horizontals.
