CH-53E Sea Stallion @ the Reno Air Races, 2009CC-BY-SA-3.0 Jon Davis So for those of you that don’t know me, haven’t seen my flickr feed or haven’t seen my Commons account… I take pictures. Some have described my photography as “excessive” in certain cases. What that roughly means is that I tend to take a [...]

I wandered outside ::GASP:: for a bit today to take some pictures for Wikipedia. I made it a point of writing down a bunch of articles in the area that needed pictures last year… but I didn’t get much of them done. Winter came soon after. I’ve finally gotten off my be-hind to go take [...]

First let me say that I don’t hate photography outright. Maybe even at all. Maybe I just hate people sometimes. I take pictures, I enjoy taking pictures.

Since John is being a PITA and writing comments on all my old posts – I guess I should put up something new. Basically I’ve been playing about with photography again. I finally decided to get with the program and get a Flickr Account. You can feel free to click through and look at my [...]

Bugatti Veyron I stopped by the Danville d’Elegance car show this last weekend. For those that don’t know what the show is, it is a high end show that takes place on the main street in Danville, CA. By “high end” I mean that there were 100+ vehicles there, worth (easily) 15-20 million dollars, in [...]
