Weekend well spent in SLO with friends, food, mountain biking, beaching, thrifting, and a 21st birthday.
As we take a stroll at night, we look up and we see the Big Dipper, an asterism of seven bright stars that are a part of the constellation Ursa Major or Big Bear. Five out of the seven stars are approximately 80 light years away from Earth.

Happy Halloween! :D I will catch up on everything later, for now going to catch up on non-Flickr things. Have a GREAT day, everyone!
Since Scott and I live in a building with no children in the middle of a city that actively discourages Halloween due to rowdy parties that end in stabbings, we'll only be celebrating with a bag of candy corn, silly hats, and the movie Haunted Summer. I may also cook the gourd from the "gourdalicious" photo! :P

I think it could be easily translated as 'Slow motion'
very quiet and peaceful day at Goytre Wharf - even the restaurant is only open at weekends till Spring.
4. A Sense of Calm
The result of fifteen months of making America great again...
In spite of the orange glare and the twitter-bombs bursting in air, our flag is still there!
It doesn’t look too good, though.
Quick stop at the main station.

Thursday night a bunch of us Bike Happening folks were having a "rolling meeting" around SLO. Lightening was flashing every where that night so we decided to take our bikes to the highest point in downtown and watch the show. I saw more lightening that night then I have seen in my entire life. (Photo by Bo)
This was from a few weekends ago while experimenting with my B&W 10-stop neutral density filter. The two bridges you see are the Hell Gate Bridge (foreground) and the Robert F. Kennedy / RFK Bridge (background – formerly the Triboro Bridge), both of which have been featured in previous shots.
I went down off the sidewalk to the rocks below to try to better capture the flow of the East River against the mossy rocks on such a pretty day.
Feedback & advice much appreciated.

We had the "perfect storm" of conditions yesterday-- I was off of work, we had some decent waves on the north shore and the weather wasn't cloudy or rainy, like it has been lately--so I thought I'd head out to Pipeline and Backdoor for some surf shooting. The sets were kind of infrequent, but when they did come in they came in pretty good, at 8-10 feet, and the winds didn't crush the waves too much. I took my Nikon D300 body out instead of the D700, because I felt it had been neglected since I bought the D700 last year. I took a few hundred shots over a three hour period and was editing them when I realized why I loved my D700 so much--Noise. Don't get me wrong the D300 is a good camera and was definitely a step up from my previous D200, but neither can match the smoothness of the D700--gotta lover those large pixels. Of course the advantage of the DX-based sensor is it "adds" length for capturing those far off reef shots, but unless the subject is evenly lit--which seldom happens in surf photography--the D300's noise starts showing its ugly head. But with all that said, I did got out of the house, enjoyed the beach and some "beach action." Here are a few shots from that shoot... Hope you enjoy them.
