The People at the Party in the Park

Since I’ve been running around Minneapolis and the surrounding metro area all week I haven’t been keeping up with my goal of daily photo posts. Therefore, I’m going to take a stab at posting this weekend in order to make up for it.

One of my goals in regards to photography is to improve the shots I take of people. Following are a couple of my favorites from the wedding:

Dave and Sarah congratulate each other on their achieved hilarity.

Spy!

Have I interrupted the pre-officiating conference? Maybe I have caught an attempt to convert Al to the church of officiating officiants and their official coefficients.

Birthday Photos

Today’s photo post is a double whammy since both were taken on the same day, my birthday! Dante peered at the poster for the ambient music event at the Madrone Lounge in San Francisco, looked up at me, pursed his kitty lips, and narrowed his eyes in an expression that could only be taken one way.

“Ambient music? C’mon.”

Well, Dante, you’re one to talk about taste. You eat Buster’s puke.

What Flavor is Your Kool-Aid Fountain?

Today at work I noticed a number of sites in which folks would post a daily photo either of themselves showing how they change from day to day or of a particular item they happen upon during the course of the day. I’ve decided this is a good exercise, but that I would have a hard time keeping up with the daily uploads and commentary (because I can’t make a post without writing something and that something usually turns into a long something). Therefore, I will start by making a post each weekday with a photo, but not necessarily a photo from that particular day nor the recent past. Just a photo.

Blue. The answer is blue flavor. This here is the Kool-aid fountain we pass on our regular biking route to Palo Alto. I had speculated that it was perhaps that blue stuff that is used to clean toilets or neutralize outhouses, but then I saw someone let his dog drink out of it. Since then I prefer to assume it is Kool-aid. Unfortunately, that leads to a strong desire to drink from it myself while biking past on a hot day.
