331/365. Black Friday — never looked so good

Holidays and work and drinking... all stumbling blocks getting thru the 365.

The light in this shot was provided by fluorescent bulbs about 5 feet above.

Lastly, thanks again everyone for your support. It's only a matter of a weekend and the month of December.

Cheers.

324/365. Hot to the touch — so wear some gloves

Sorry for the wait folks. Major thanks to those who have been voting for me (for Flickr photog of the year)! You guys rock! And of course if you haven't had the chance yet, you still can. It's crazy to know that 2009 is coming close to an end and this 365 will sadly be discontinued.

Anyway, here's a classic of Erin for ya. She is damn hot; this I know.

And now for the rest of the goods...

317/365. Park & Ride — and take 'er for a spin

Haven't brought out the stubby in a while, and I think it's been a few months since I shot a bike. So I was only due.

On the Twitter front, I've slowly been building up a decent Photography List that you can subscribe to.

Lastly, if you've been following my work this year; and you still sorta like my work, vote for me for Flickr Photographer of the year - it would mean a lot.

Other than that, let's get to the important stuffs...

282/365. The coffee maker — would you like a taste?

This is how coffee should be brewed. The end.

240/365. Erin — yep, always hot

It's always great when coming home from work and Erin's just wearing somethin' fancy. I had to prompt the question...

me: "where are we going?"

erin: "nowhere, I'm just dressed"

me: "!"

and to the drawing boards...

233/365. I know what you did last summer — so beware of the meow

And some of you thought I missed this weekend. Albeit some of it being a blur, I still managed to capture photos each night.

This is our cat. Meow meow meow.

Ok. Gotta get on with uploading the rest of this weekend.

226/365. Self — completely out of the ordinary

Oh, and you might be thinking, "what happened to yesterday?" - yeah, good question.

Anyway, I really should get some sleep.

219/365. He dreams — do you?

Tired of this face yet? Too bad. It seems as though the more people follow my work, the more off the wall comments I get. So with that in mind... a few things:

1) Don't tell me how you would have "fixed my shot." When I'm looking for advice, I'll ask.

2) Please, please, please don't leave images, logos, awards, unicorns barfing panda rainbows in my stream. I'll delete your comment, even if you say nice things about my big beautiful eyes (ok, I kid, but seriously)

3) Avoid inviting me to your group. I post to very few. As a matter of fact, I recommend in my profile that folks should "unjoin" several groups and stick to a few they're passionate about.

4) Avoid dumb questions that can be answered by Google. Eg: "What's C.T.O.?" Seriously, the first result is a link to the strobist blog.

5) I have no idea where all this barking came from, but I'm tired, so let's see some strobist info already :)

212/365. Equivocal — or something else

The manhunt has still been on for the thief. Meanwhile I'm pretty sure we scared him off and have pretty much written off that I'd get the thing back. I will, however, be reporting the serial to... whatever organization it is that you report these things to (police? that seems so over the top). It will make a good statistic.

Anyhow, here's a photo of me. Contrary to many of my shots, the blue here was ACTUALLY produced with a blue gel. Despite this being somewhere in the 4000k° range, it's nowhere near my usual sub 3Kk° shots.

alrights. anyways. lets do this.

198/365. Curiosity

Omagad, my wife is so hot. Really, you've got to view this photo large to truly appreciate it.

And she totally rules for taking off her sweater in the cold, windy fog above the Marina at the Lyon and Broadway stairs.

Also, she just got this new Marc Jacob's skirt with vintage top.... it's like lingerie, but for public outing. It's awesome.

Lastly, there are some other details on why we were out at Lyon & Broadway (street view link).

Alright, enough details. Here's what you probably want...
