Don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind’s blowin’.
Here are a few more of some of my favorite photos from our trip to the San Francisco Bay Area last week. I was experimenting with the shutter speed on the new camera and attempting to give the water a more fluid look rather than capturing it standing still, as in these photos.
You can view all of our photos over at the photo gallery.
I haven’t mentioned Quicksilver much here, but it’s one of my favorite applications for the Mac. I’ve always been a keyboard-style user on computers, whether I’m using a Mac or a Windows-based machine. Quicksilver allows folks like me the ability to extend Mac OS X to a new level. Here are a few of my favorite Quicksilver tricks.
I want more, more, mmmooorrre…
Head on over to our photo gallery to view the photos from our trip to the San Francisco Bay Area.
Make sure to catch the wild discovery we made, views of the city from Coit Tower, Pearl Jam ticket-buying experience, wine tasting, the Pacific Ocean, the Muir Woods, and the stream at Muir Woods (taken with a slow shutter speed to illustrate the water flow).
It’s hard to list all of the great shots, so I encourage you to peruse the gallery of 237 that I weeded out of the 500+ we took.
After some more wonderful sunsets in the Bay Area, we’ve arrived home. An enormous thanks to Jesse, Kate and of course, Amy and Travis, for the wonderful time they showed us on this trip. Dana and I both loved the Bay Area - it truly is a magical place. I’ll have more photos up soon, with the complete photo gallery in a week or so. With 574 photos to go through and possibly edit, it’ll take awhile.

from this morning:
Earlier this week, I ran across this story announcing that Polaroid will cease its production of instant film. I’ve never owned a Polaroid instant film camera, but I’ve always thought it might be fun. I guess that idea just got a lot more expensive.
If you’re afraid of shark bites, you need not fear them any longer, the Florida Museum of Natural History says that you should be more afraid of dying in a sand hole collapse than from a shark bite.
Only three days until we leave for San Francisco!
I, Brandon Hirsch, pledge to not use Firefox this week, but to instead use only Camino for web browsing. This may not sound as difficult as it will be. It is going to require me to remap several keyboard shortcuts and to just get used to several others. I spend an enormous amount of time in my web browser, so it’s going to be a frustrating week.
