joy
I visited the California Academy of Sciences last weekend, and my best discovery — even better than the albino alligator with the amputated pinky toe — was this man’s face, peering out from the treetop railing that separated him from the canopy of the museum’s indoor rainforest.
I watched him from the understory; this is my lens at its zoomiest. I only caught the last 30 seconds of this moment, and after ten seconds of trying to take pictures, I gave up and just watched him. The shots I got are technically terrible because I’m a nonphotographer with little grasp of how cameras work, yet I still insist on using full manual settings, even in emergencies like this one.
I can’t express exactly what it is I’m looking for — out of life or out of my $20 admissions ticket — but I know that it includes moments like this one.
two very different rallies
Here are some photos from Easter (which I spent in the Castro) and this afternoon (ten minutes of which I spent walking through a conservative rally).
He must’ve noticed I wasn’t rallying.
two Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence
Sweet Jesus (not actual name), an entrant in the Hunky Jesus Contest
Rusty Humphries (actual name), a conservative political commentator
MC Jesus
Yes, they is coming soon.
