Fog rolling in across the Golden Gate Bridge. This is a short time lapse movie I shot from our apartment’s balcony earlier this evening, beginning at 4:30pm with my Nikon D300. Photos were taken every 30 seconds from roughly 4:30 pm to 5:00pm.

The New York Times has a fascinating writeup on the shifting electorate and comparing the results of this election to 2004. Slowly but surely, we’re turning the country blue.

Great job from the Upright Citizens Brigade.

What a crazy awesome feeling to see that something I’m planning ends up in the San Francisco Chronicle.

The Barack Obama campaign has some great election night photos on their flickr account from campaign photographer David Katz.

Our country has come so far in trying to fight for equality for all people. Please, don’t let us turn things around tomorrow by denying the right of two people to marry.

On Saturday, November 8th, I’m helping to organize the first San Francisco photo safari for Photojojo, a great photography website headquartered here in the city and run by some good friends. We’ll be departing from the corner of Market Street & Brady Street at 3:30pm and going on a tour of the murals and graffiti around Valencia Street.

Heather Champ, the community manager at Flickr will be leading this particular safari for us. Afterward, we’ll meet up at a nearby bar where we’ll share photos in a slide show and give away prizes.

And since the election will finally be over, you’ll definitely be in need of a breather from your computer. So grab your nearest camera (all types accepted) and come join us! You can get more information via the Facebook event page.

Holy crap! These guys wearing wingsuits are nuts!

Of course if that doesn’t provide enough adrenaline, there is always ski-gliding.

Or… if I want something slightly more tame, I could try surfing a 60 foot wall of water instead.

And there is always skateboarding at high speed down a winding road.
