linkwize lent me his camera! Thanks!
I'm going on a loooong drive, and i had crazy visions of taking this 4 by 5 camera and wide lens with me and photographing Yunta and surrounds. Many sane people, though, pointed out that this was nuts. So I'm going on a loooong drive with my regular gear, and many rolls of 120.
And when I get home, a few days before I go back to work during which I can learn not to be terrified by this beast of many components.
I'm actually looking forward to the end of my holidays, and i haven't even started them yet!

This dog park is right by my house and it's where I take Parker several times a day. There are nights when this park has an other-worldly feel to it -- the fog passes through and catches on the tungsten lamps and the mist is so damp you can see the droplets hanging in the air. Unfortunately, nights like that tend to be windy and there is too much movement in the trees and plants to get a sharp photograph. I've had problems before with blurry one second photos in daylight when the wind was up. A night photo like this takes eight minutes!
San Francisco is a windy city and it takes an incredible amount of patience to pull off sharp, detailed shots. This night was a warm, still night. I was able to catch the scene in detail but since this was a calm, fogless night, I was not able to capture that other-worldly feel.
