Yesterday I noticed the unusual sight of a military ship from Federated Media’s kitchen windows. Turns out it’s the Russian cruiser Varyag. We’re friends with Russia these days, right? More at SFGate: Russian warship makes rare SF appearance.

The best view of the Varyag that I could get from the office

Update: I finally discovered that the jackhammer stencils all over San Francisco were an obscure promo for Public Works, a gallery/club venue opening at the time.

This would make a great clue for a San Francisco scavenger hunt. Anyone know where this was taken?

On two previous occasions I’ve taken pictures of colorful cars in nearly colorless contexts, which I’ve emphasized by further desaturating their backgrounds. So it seemed only natural to take a monochromatic (and assymmetric) car and push it a little further.

I imagine that this is what cars are going to look like in the future.

Photos for photo’s sake. Sometimes I just want to post a photo without tying it back to some meaningful context.
