I’ve been really busy with school the past couple of weeks, I have a number of final projects due next week. It’ll be nice to get those finished up, then I can relax for a month.

My trip to the Berkeley marina went nicely. It was really cold, but pretty out. We also came across some guys fishing. They hooked something large as we were walking by, so we hung around to see what it was. Turned out they had caught a stingray of all things, it was pretty crazy. I got some photos.

I have a lot of content I’ve been wanting to add, just haven’t had the energy to devote to the site. I look forward to getting back to that in the next week or two.

I’ve been wanting to take night photos at the Berkeley marina, but keep putting it off. It’s been so cold recently that I haven’t been able to work up the motivation to get my ass out there. I figured I’d post about my intent to make it tonight, because I can’t lie on my blog, so now I’m totally obligated to go. I’ll check back later and we’ll see how that went.

I made it up into the Berkeley hills last week, twice in one day actually. I first went up during the day to check things out and to learn the route. Good thing too, the streets are really confusing up there. I found some nice areas along Grizzly Peak Road with a full view of the bay, it was really impressive. I look forward to making more trips up there. I want to catch it when San Francisco is being swallowed by clouds, I want to go up on a misty day and or night, and I want to make it up there on a really clear day. I’d also like to take my telephoto lense and get some nicer shots of San Francisco.
