New prints available, and free shipping until August 10!

I've recently added some new art prints to my Society6 shop, so now, along with my favourite photographs from Asia, there are some favourites from past trips I've taken to California, Bermuda, Spain (I was there for La Tomatina, but the photos I've posted are from Granada), Morocco, and Italy (where I ran my first—and so far only—marathon: the Maratona di Roma)!

And now, until August 10 at midnight (Pacific Time), you can take advantage of free shipping worldwide!

Introducing! Prints for sale at Society6!

I am so excited right now, I think I might burst! As part of the new, creative endeavour I'm embarking on, I am starting my own Etsy shop (launching soon!) where I will sell fabric houses and portrait tees. But after taking over 20,000 photographs in Asia, I have a few of those I'd like to share, so I've set up a little shop over on Society6 where you can buy gallery quality prints in different sizes.

So head on over and have a look! I do hope you enjoy, and would love to hear what you think!

Here are a few of the photographs for sale:

ROOD 002: Anniversary book

This post is part of what will undoubtedly be an ongoing series, which I am lovingly calling ROOD (Ridiculously Out Of Date). Posts which I have had in draft mode for, oh, some number of... months, but for whatever reason, have not devoted the time to finishing (sigh). Though blogging is generally meant to be a timely affair and these posts are sadly irrelevant, I still feel compelled to share them with you. I hope you find this trip down memory lane an enjoyable one.

I made this photobook for Mark for our fourth anniversary last September. We hiked four of the 46 High Peaks of the Adirondack within these years, so I thought that was a nice parallel. Some of our best times have been on these mountains and in these trees. Hopefully we'll get there later this summer to climb a few more!

ROOD 001: San Francisco

This post is part of what will undoubtedly be an ongoing series, which I am lovingly calling ROOD (Ridiculously Out Of Date). Posts which I have had in draft mode for, oh, some number of... months, but for whatever reason, have not devoted the time to finishing (sigh). Though blogging is generally meant to be a timely affair and these posts are sadly irrelevant, I still feel compelled to share them with you. I hope you find this trip down memory lane an enjoyable one.

I wrote about the giant trees I visited in Sequoia NP last April, but I have yet to tell you about the rest of the trip. Over 9 whirling days in northern California, we did gawk at mind-blowing trees, but we also marvelled at granite cliff-faces and waterfalls in Yosemite, wined with good friends in Sonoma, and walked and ate our way around San Francisco. What. a. city. It might just be one of my favourite cities. Ever. 

I could live quite happily there. Not that I'm not digging the minus 24 windchill today... but ocean thoughts are luring me... There's just such a great vibe. Eclectic. Colourful. Open. Interesting. Original. Anything but stale. I met a woman in a café who told me she wasn't going in to work that day because there had been a full moon the night before, and the last time she went to work after a full moon, well, I probably didn't want to know about it.

In short, I loved it, and I can't wait to go back.

Happily wandering the alleyways of Chinatown.

If I lived in SF, I would live here. At the City Lights bookstore.

Steep streets and bay windows in North Beach (Nobles Alley + Grant Avenue).

Seriously slanty streets.

The streets between the streets (Allen off Hyde.) This delicious pastel scheme is making me weak in the knees.

The aptly named Havens Street. Not even a street. A tucked-away rambling alley.
I would split my time between here and the bookshop.

North Beach and Telegraph Hill from the top of Lombard Street.

The Sea lions of Pier 39. Heaped.

The Castro.

Japanese Tea Garden in Golden Gate Park.

Pacifica. There is something infinitely calming about being at that point where ocean meets land.
