An Abstraction

{Liz started asking me about this picture, so I thought some details were in order. First, it is a SEM picture (from the bottom you can see it was done at 0.8keV, 25x mag (hella low btw), and at a working distance of 15mm). This is not a normal image, meaning the SEM doesn't normally do this, and it is a weird quirk of the physics of the thing. I will let you ponder how I did this, and get back with more info later. Oh and click on it b/c the full version is much crispier.}

Pollen

{This is why you've been sneezing.}

African Face on a Pot

{Found this cool face on a super old pot in the Legion of Honor. I think I'm going to make a stamp for my ceramics based on this dude.}

Bee Beard

{You know this guy is committed to his product if he's willing to wear it on his face.}

Sweet Butt Sauce

Inside Castro Theater

{Liz and I went to see Alice in Wonderland at the Castro Theater this weekend. I ran into some old Burningman friends too.}

Pickled Sa-Tho

{I just thought this lady on the right is seriously weird. And what the hell is Sa-Tho and why do you want it pickled?}
