Flew back home today, we had a good time with T's family but it was nice to be back in the city. I snapped this on the way back from the airport. The warm(ish) weather, the trees of Golden Gate Park and the bridge in the distance made for a nice welcome home as we drove down 19th Ave.
Inspired by Flickr's "Project 365" and my friend Kathy, I will attempt to post one picture per day for a year starting August 1st 2007. Sometimes the pictures will be artistic, sometimes they will be things that were important to me on that day and other times they will just be pictures of things I thought were funny. I am sure a lot of poorly shot, poorly composed photos will be taken, but hopefully so will one or two great ones.

#115 Lines and Curves
This is the skylight over the atrium of the Double Tree Suites in Omaha where T and I stayed while visiting her family for Thanksgiving. It was a very bright (and very cold) day so the lines and the shadows really caught my eye. See more here.

#114 Road To (the middle of) Nowhere
This is the gravel road that T's parents live on out in the cornfields of Iowa. We had a really nice thanksgiving with the extended family, probably the nicest one I've spent with them.

#113 Leaving On A Jet Plane
Flew to Omaha to spend thanksgiving with T's family in Iowa. There are no direct flights from SF to Omaha so we had to change in Denver. Both our flights were about 45 minutes late, but it wasn't a bad journey.

#112 Goodbye
Our foster kittens went back to the rescue group today. I can't belive how much they've grown since they arrived. I have mixed feelings about it, I'm glad they're out of the house becuase that really was just too many animals, but I'd really bonded with the little grey one. I hope they find good homes.

#111 Branches
Very clear night after a few days of mist and fog. These are the branches of a small tree on the sidewalk outside our house. I used the flash to get a reverse silhouette thing. Bit too arstsy fartsy not sure I like it.

#110 Pointy
There's not much color in our courtyard as winter arrives, but these succulents are really coming into their own.

#109 The Mask
Went over to our friends S and C for dinner. They have a lovely house out by the ocean and they have about 10 of these great masks on the wall in their porch way.

#108 Blowing Off Steam
Crazy day. Dropped my thesis research class becuase I'm very frustrated with my advisors, had my end of year performance review at work (went very well), had to dive in and fix a bunch of someone elses code at the last minute for work. Went out with S and did a bit of a pub crawl of the Mission District. Seemed we were a magnet for 'interesting' characters all night long. Realized I'd been too busy to take any photosall day so I snapped this with my camera phone.

#107 Gummi Bear Gang Fight
I liked the previous picture of Gummi Bears so much that tonight when I was short of inspiration I went out and bought some to photograph.
