The Inaugural Silicon Valley Comic Con in San Jose Convention on March 19, 2016

From Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP_Garage

The HP Garage is a private museum where the company Hewlett-Packard (HP) was founded. It is located at 367 Addison Avenue in Palo Alto, California. It is considered to be the "Birthplace of Silicon Valley." In the 1930s, Stanford University and its Dean of Engineering Frederick Terman began encouraging faculty and graduates to stay in the area instead of leaving California, and develop a high-tech region. HP founders William Hewlett and David Packard are considered the first Stanford students who took Terman's advice.

The garage has since been designated California Historical Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Though not open for public tours, the property can be viewed from the sidewalk and driveway.

iPhone pics don't do it justice at all: this was one of the most beautiful sights I've ever seen. I managed to take a few pics with my DSLR but it had the 70-200mm lens on it, so no wide views alas.

In any case, it looked like the clouds were simply a layer of cotton draped around the landscape.

Something that instantly catches attention. Apparently Point Reyes is a whale watching zone.

This is my first photo a week for an entire year.

I went to the Inaugural Silicon Valley Comic Con which also happens to be my first comic con ever! I had a great time and hope to go to the big one in San Diego next year!

I chose this photo because the cosplay actor did a great job... Looking at this gives me the chills.

Zzzzz..... Oh, are we finally moving?
