A Variety of Photographs From the Last Few Days Selected to Inspire Maximum Jealousy in All Viewers*
Whenever I’m unburdened from feeling lost and unsure of myself, I purposefully investigate the Bay Area. Nature is the primary destination; other times, hipster gourmet ice-cream.
The goals are simple:
1. Figure out what the deuce is my purpose in life.
2. See beautiful things and snap low-quality digital photos of them to upload to this blog in order to inspire maximum jealousy in all viewers.*
By reminding others of how lucky I actually have it, I hope to remind myself.

I hope you enjoyed the preceding photos. If not, I understand. Perhaps the energy of San Francisco’s local baseball team winning a game has clouded your judgement?

“Figure out what the deuce is my purpose in life.” The purpose of life is to get on with it as best you can, have fun and stop worrying about figuring out what the deuce is your purpose in life :)
Great photos again!
Massive jealousy? I’m in Chiang Mai at the moment ;)

May 18th, 2012 at 3:58 amHello,
I came across your “tree tunnel” image while doing an image search and was wondering if you can tell me the general location this picture was taken? Great background for a photo shoot, thanks in advance for your help. Great blog!

I really never knew how much opportunity there was to actually escape the urbanization around San Fran until you moved there and started snapping nature scenes — pretty wild dichotomy.
