The hummingburds are very territorial and are constantly chasing each other away from the feeder. Today we witnessed an unusual sight… a truce.
Bay Area Trail sunrise
Drove out to the San Leandro Marina. My backpack felt a little light as I left home. It was when I arrived that I realized I left my camera on my desk, doh. Good thing I had my backup camera.





1st Lunch 2022
Today we made our way up to Yountville to take Suka & Mariel to lunch at Coqueta, our 1st outing of 2022.














NYE Walk
We took a walk then ended up jumping on the ferry and had lunch at OSHA Thai.




Oyster Bay Regional Shoreline sunset
Revisited this place for the sunset.


Coffee Bender
The Howlett’s gifted us with some lovely coffee from Bend OR. I thought of sending a photo of us drinking it, but decided to try my hand at video. I have no video experience as evidence from this clip.
Post Christmas Sunrise
Ran out to my usual spot cause I was too lazy to find a location, but was rewarded with a nice sunrise.

Omicron Christmas 2021
Today we invaded Vanden’s house for a Christmas celebration (rapid test negative). Olivia got the rockstar treatment & I finally got to meet Suka.























Omicron Christmas Eve 2021
Jon had a Christmas Eve party planned… Then just about everyone pulled out. We dropped by for a quick “Hi” & photos, but ended up staying for quite awhile (rapid test negative). On the technical side, I was getting some stray light that created all sorts of issues with the skin tones so I converted everything to B&W with the exception of Cheech. I also got use my Sigma 56mm f1.4 for the 1st time and the Sundisc light modifier.
