Picture taken somewhere on Haight Street, San Francisco. I remember taking it around the time we were searching for Janis Joplin's house on Lyon Street, so I guess that makes it Upper Haight still, but the lower end? We walked all the way from the MUNI stop at Carl & Stanyan down the full length of Haight to Market Street, had lunch at a place called Cafe Trieste, and rode the F trolley all the way back around to the end of Fisherman's wharf. It was the first sunny day we'd had so we wanted to catch some views of the Golden Gate Bridge from the pier at the Maritime Park. It turned out to still be pretty hazy, so while we could *see* the bridge none of my photos came out all that well. We saw plenty of the bridge the next day, trust me.

New Camera!
I'm the proud new owner of a Nikon D80 DSLR! Or at least I was a month or so ago when I got it. I don't update this very often, just when the mood strikes. Anyways, I had been scoping DSLRs out for a couple months and decided to finally go for it (permission from my wife to spend a bunch of money was also key). I picked up the D80 with two lenses; 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 VR and 55-200mm f/4-5.6 VR Nikkors. I love it! I take way too many pictures of our dog, but he's just so photogenic. Here's an example to commemorate the event. I took this on the day I got the camera; we took Jack and went to Core Creek Park here in Newtown. It was late afternoon, which is a great time to take pictures. This is one of my favorite pictures I've taken so far with the new camera.

Yet another fresh start.
The whole "work blog" thing died after about one day, so that's gone. I'm really interested in getting an SLR this year (after the credit card is payed off from Cancun/Christmas/etc/etc), so maybe I'll go back to a regular blog kind of thing and post some pictures. Why not?
Here's a picture of the Old Church of St. Andrew here in Newtown. I took it late in the afternoon and was able to get the moon in the roof/steeple junction. The church dates to 1880, so it's actually relatively young in a town that was founded by William Penn in 1684. Historical!
