This set was taken during a recent drive out to Napa Valley. Words aren’t necessary to describe the the beauty, so I’ll leave it at that. Enjoy.

Walking Home

Here are a few shots taken around SoMa on my way home from work with the Contax T2 I recently picked up. The clouds in the sky made for a really nice walk home, and a great time to try out the new camera. I’m really pleased with the quality of this little camera so far!

2 February

I wanted to do this post yesterday (February 1) as a way to begin a new month, but there was a lot going on yesterday so “2 February” it is. But I feel this photo reflects where I am in mind, body, and spirit today much better than it would have yesterday. The future will be bright – embrace it.

I’ve been really enjoying the work of Mikael Kennedy for some time now, and I’m strongly considering getting on a plane to Philadelphia, PA to check out The Last Showing of ‘The Odysseus’. I’ve never been to Philadelphia, so this might be a good excuse to go.

Just a few random pictures where things got a little weird. Film is unpredictable, and a little crazy. Which is probably why I love it so much – it reminds me of myself at times.

☮+♥ to Kodak. I really hope they’re able to pull through their financial hardship, and continue to produce the film we’ll capture our memories on for years to come.

Happy New Year! I have my arms, mind, and heart open to everything 2012 will have to offer. I have lots of plans for written up, and I’m looking forward to getting started on a few creative projects I’ve been thinking about for the past few months. This is going to be good!

The Photos above were taken during a recent trip to Disneyland to celebrate my birthday. Watching the sunrise(and sunset)from 30,000 feet in the air is always a spiritual experience for me. It’s probably the only thing I like about flying.

Peace+Love,
Richie
