The Dials of Alameda

I got the rest of my San Francisco photos online, the entire set can be found on Flickr. But I want to highlight some of the dials I found in Alameda, they are too beautiful:

Alameda: rusty dial 1

Alameda: rusty dial 2

Wolfie

My trip to San Francisco was great. One of the things Damon and I did was arrange a photo shoot with a model from Model Mayhem. We scouted some locations and loved these big empty abandoned tanks on Treasure Island, a mostly-abandoned naval base. We hit the thrift stores hard and got costuming and props fairly easily.

I've not finished processing all of the 400 photos from the two-hour shoot, but here are a few of my favorites:

Cue That Jet Plane Song

Run to first

I have a flight leaving in about 3 hours for San Francisco. And I am so excited about this trip.

I'll be spending a week down there with my brother, during which I will be taking in some local music, meeting with people from the internet, and even a scheduled model shoot.

Other plans include: Sleeping In; Tending A Sunburn; Forgetting What Day It Is; and the always popular Family Gossip With Giggles.

Things I have considered long and hard, yet decided to not pack:

  • Kaladi Brothers punch card
  • three of Olive's bouncy balls, no matter how many times she drops them into my suitcase
  • my huge and heavy tripod
  • Steve's ancient Costco membership card
  • Olive
