July 14, 2007 – Mesquite

Mesquite
Mesquite sparks in an explosive dance. 8 second exposure. I took about 100 shots, and this is one my favorites. I almost posted it upside down, where it looks like some kind of fire ghost.

Friday the 13th. This is my lucky day, because Kevin (who I’m picking up from wakeboarding camp) was born on Friday the 13th.

Bay Bridge

San Francisco Bay Bridge, looking towards Oakland. Heavily processed using Picassa2 to get the high contrast and color palette. I’m only mildly happy with this image.

July 10, 2007 – AFM

AFM
I spent most of the day programming, so I was pretty burnt by the end of the evening. I found an old AFM (atomic force microscope) in the garage and wrote out my feelings with 60 xenon atoms (all I had around).
As if.

July 9, 2007 – Holes

Holes
37°38’42.57″N 120°39’32.40″W
Between Modesto and Lake McClure. Reminded me of the book/movie “Holes”. They’re either putting in or taking out an orchard. Just rows and rows of deep holes, and three yellow monsters chomping away.
