Tansy beetles are a super rare species of beetle that - in the UK - only live in a small stretch of the River Ouse, right by York.

Knaresborough's this little town, not too far from where I live.

Back in Amsterdam again for work!

Visited Bempton Cliffs with family - time for more bird photos!

York Pride was on!

Vancouver is an unbelivably beautiful city, as it turns out.

Friday morning, I spent a couple hours in town, trying to capture the feeling of such vivid light making every tree glow.

Was asked to take some pictures of the blossoms in someone's garden — the light was fabulous, and with the big zoom lens, I was surprised at just how much more is visible than typically with the human eye (even when all photos were from relatively far awa…

I find it hard, sometimes, to see the beauty in winter here — cold, dark days, when all color's been drained for the season.

Went for a little wander at ~golden hour.

Wandering around town again — overcast and crowded, but got a few photos I liked.

With recent flooding (typical for this time of year) and a drop in temperature, there was a thick blanket of fog, up and down the river.

Last week, I took a few days off to visit Edinburgh – I'd never been, and figured there's good photo opportunities.

I spent much of the week watching the trees slowly turn shades of yellow & red, waiting to have a few hours available to wander around town with my camera.

A work trip took me to Amsterdam for a few days – got a chance to wander around one evening with some friends from work.

I got some pictures of the sunset the other day.

I spent a month repeatedly building my website in Docker, and now have horrors to share.

Spent some time over at Bempton Cliffs, in part just for the visceral feeling of the wind from the sea, but also for the truly incredible number of birds there.

Took a few photos taken while wandering around York before my on-call shift.

A cloudy day, wandering closer to the city proper.

There's been a few mornings recently with a kind of very thin fog that I've never seen back in the bay area.

This is the last one, I swear!

One of those "everything went wrong" kind of days – went out walking, only realizing 20 minutes in that I forgot to put the SD card in my camera; came back to get it; went back out and slipped in the mud trying to get a picture of the river.

Another batch of photos for all of you RSS enjoyers.

Happened to be in downtown SF with a camera right around sunset, and figured I'd wander a while instead of immediately hopping on Bart.

Just one photo this time – the first sunrise of the new year, rising over San Francisco.

Very late on uploading these, but such is life sometimes.

Another batch from the backlog — from a walk near and around Lake Temescal.

We're due for tons of rain over the next few days, so I took the opportunity to go for a hike while conditions were still okay-ish.

These photos have been in my backlog for a while, posting them now in lieu of anything taken more recently.

We had a second cohost posters meetup on Sunday.

I was recently visiting Northfield and went for a walk around the Carleton Arboretum.

I recently got myself a treat — Canon's EFS 17-55mm f/2.8 zoom lens.

Afternoon hike at Sibley.

It's been exceptionally hot lately; went for a walk in the morning before it heated up too much.

Went for a kinda long hike near Lake Chabot – took a ton of photos, and ended up quite pleased at how they turned out!

First Atom feed entry :) Here's an assortment of photos, exploring new trails around Vollmer Peak.
