Many who work outside of San Francisco commute to the City each day on the "BART" (Bay Area Rapid Transit System) and pass the time by working on their computers.
A few hasty phone snaps while on my new longer commute into work. Out of Sholing, down to Netley, and back along Weston Shore. 8 to 9 miles. Weather this week has been mixed!
I have tried to cycle home from work once a week since I have been here, it is 30 km along country roads with barely any traffic... it is a great way to unwind at the end of the day, I just wish the days weren't getting shorter, because it won't be nearly so much fun in the dark!
People here commute to work in every possible way. Motorcycles are particularly suited to the narrow streets and give you one of the best options for swerving around instead of hitting various targets -- moving and not!!
I really enjoyed the street scenes in Pana. Maybe we just get used to our own surroundings and don't really "see" it every day. Maybe it's because I never go anywhere anymore except the feed store and the vet so my surroundings just never change!
See the tourists sitting in the lower right hand corner waiting for the travel agent to come to work for the day. They're probably going to go see an active volcano. We got to do that near the end of the week and when I get to that point you'll get to see photos of lava rolling down the hill. Amazing.
Potted plants in the street. Street, sidewalk, shop, it's all share and share alike. That's why bicycles and motorcycles are so much easier to maneuver about in.
The shop keepers on the right side of this street are earlier risers than the left sided guys. See the little shack built over the shop towards the end of the block on the left side? And the ever present looming hills of the volcanoes.
Pendeln im Winter: Erster Schnee, Novembermorgensonne irgendwo zwischen Freiham und Geisenbrunn
Winter commute to work, first snow, bleak november sun somewhere south of Munich
Early morning commuting to work.
The Sam Brown Hi-Viz belt is an underrated piece of safety equipment - they are reflective, very distinctive from afar & can be worn over any piece of clothing. Once removed it can be stored in a small space, and 'hey presto' you turn back to a pedestrian, or whatever you want to be. Obviously I'm wearing a red sports jacket in this photo which is a bad example, but I'm sure you know what I mean.
Here is some history of the Sam Brown belt: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Browne_belt
Took a minute on the way home from work to test out the new Canon T2i. Not bad, but wouldn't you know that the box arrived on the very day that Canon announces the T3i. It's cool though, T2i has the same guts, just lacks the articulated screen, which I'd probably break.
Intended to be viewed as part of a set. (Taken with the Diana-style setting of the Vignette app on my mobile phone.)
I recently found a stack of handwritten notepads from 3/29/1995 through 6/9/1997 where I logged the commutes to school. I have complete logs for the entire 2 years of driving to school, including start time, end time, time traveled, who drove, and in what car. It would appear that my fascination with GPS and data logging began at a relatively early age.
Dan met up with me on a ride home last week wearing flip flops and a baseball hat.
Just like we did it when we were kids.

I've been having a lot of fun recently with my Ricoh GRIII. I came across a nice B&W Ricoh Recipe that has a lot of contrast and it's been great. I've also been trying to be a little "messier" with my B&W photography along with having some abnormal angles to my shots, and I think some have come out great!
