304/365. I'm a School Girl — Happy Halloween

This is, without a doubt, Erin, looking extremely hot and sexy in her Halloween costume.

Unfortunately ,between getting a trick, or a treat... it looks like you'll be getting tricked into not getting strobist info tonight — even thought the big mama softbox came thru with a second performance.

And since it's nearing on 2AM, it's time to hit the sack. See ya tomorrow.

It's Santa Mow! Yesterday was our 1 year anniversary for Erin and I. The camera never really came out. So here's another one from the archives.

This was our Christmas card from 2008 — it's our cat, Meow meow meow... in a Santa outfit. She ignored us for a good 3 hours after that.

144/365. Dancing is a perpendicular expression of a horizontal desire ~ George Bernard Shaw
(express yourself)

Today was the San Francisco Mission Carnaval. Tens of thousands of people along with a mass slew of photographers were out today which makes it difficult to get any shot. It was unclear whether you needed a press pass to get into the middle of the street — cops were everywhere watching the sidelines... but there appeared to be an unwritten rule that if you had a big enough camera, you could waltz right in (no pun intended).

Anyhow, this is the Energia do Samba dance group with a friend of ours shown center of attention. They were all awesome.

Be sure to check out Erin's photo stream later this afternoon for more photos from the parade.
