In the fog

Posted on June 28, 2011 by Gary Wium

A lifting veil

Posted on June 27, 2011 by Gary Wium

After a year+ of almost daily photo blog (and in the beginning, Facebook) posts I think I’m ready to step up my game. The commute is a drag, and stopping to take photos only makes it longer. I’ll still do … Continue reading →

Posted on June 23, 2011 by Gary Wium

I know, it’s just a crane, but “big yellow” has been dangling its ball and hook on the west side of the north end of the Golden Gate Bridge for months. It’s fixture at this point, and it’s massive. Crossing … Continue reading →

The other bridge

Posted on June 22, 2011 by Gary Wium

I’m feeling a bit sleep deprived today. Up at 3:30 AM, on the road at 4:00… home at around 4:00 PM. It’s a grind. Add 135 miles of driving through a major metropolitan area to the mix, multiply by 12 … Continue reading →
