What an awesome night tonight turned out to be. Twitter buddies @Airrun, @JHolman23, @jasetrevino and @Marris_Returns came over for wine, bread, cheese, and fun.
It was my first pseudo tweetup since moving back to San Francisco, the first time I had seen Jimmy since he moved here from Missouri and the first time I had the pleasure of meeting Jason or Aaron. We listened to music, watched some hilarious YouTube videos, talked about everything and nothing at the same time.
It was a pretty awesome night. Even Ryan got to join in on the fun which was such a pleasant surprise. Seems any other time we do something like this, his hectic work schedule gets in the way. Now I just can’t wait for the next time I have friends over for wine and a great time.
The photo of the day, way up there, is yet another one from the roof of our apartment shooting into the neighboring backyard. There is something about this particular apartment and their 6000 watt light that shines light pollution across the common grassy space between the buildings that is so romantic to me. It’s what I imagine a Gregory Crewdson photo would look like if he had a crew of one and a budget of none.

You must come out to Dave’s and shoot from his roof, you can do better than I did. (Although, in my defense I have a better camera now.) http://snappostrepeat.blogspot.com/2010/05/picture-0040.html

Not to toot my own horn, but I did a story for Discovery Space about light pollution. Here’s the link: http://news.discovery.com/space/light-pollution-natiuonal-park-astronomy.html. It’s pretty interesting once you think about it. Light pollution might not be in the “spotlight” when it comes to talking about pollution, but for us photographers shooting the stars at night is becoming something of a luxery!

@MRHibbard I actually read that article when it came out, I think you posted it on your Twitter 😀 See, twitter links work!
Light pollution can be beautiful and then again it can make it really hard to get a good photo of stars. Oh well! I want to photograph the aurora borealis some time. Perhaps a trip to Alaska is in order… 😀
