Ran into David and his dog Cinnamon yesterday while shooting in the Tenderloin. I suspect the dog would have been just as tall as David if they were standing on level ground. I usually roam the streets with my 35mm, but I had my 85mm on and didn’t back up fast enough so I chopped…

This same line passes through Minneapolis-St. Paul, Ottawa, Bordeaux, Venice, Belgrade, and the northern tip of the Japanese islands. In Yellowstone, it’s roughly aligned with the Montana-Wyoming border. [Via] No, this image wasn’t taken…

I guess there’s really nowhere to put that small “baby on board” sign that people place in the back window of their cars to encourage safe driving. I can’t imagine my sister biking around like this with Abby. Image taken while I was riding my bike. I don’t really like it because it’s slightly blurry.…
