For this show, I selected six images from my “Venice at Night” series. These images evoke a feeling of the serenity you discover wandering the narrow back streets of Venice after the crowds have returned to the mainland for the night.

We went out to dinner this weekend in Union Square…a perfect excuse to see the stores all lit up and the Macy’s Christmas Tree in the center of the square. All we needed was some snow.

I passed this guy trying to load up his car at the Presidio this weekend. I think the picture speaks for itself!

The Ft. Mason Holiday Show was this weekend. Each year, my fellow photography classmates and I transform our classroom into a one-room art gallery. We begin the transformation on Friday morning by moving furniture, computers, and photo equipment into the darkroom.

Then the fun part. We hang our work gallery style. Here are my friends Susan and Roxanne hanging one of my photos.

In all, 10 students plus our instructor displayed approximately 50 works of art for our adoring public. We even hung two pieces in memory of our dear friend Nancy…she made these shows really run like clockwork, and she was dearly missed.

A couple hundred people saw our work over an evening and a day. So many good friends dropped by for some wine and art. I even sold a couple of images. How flattering is that 🙂

In honor of my brother Cliff’s UNBEATABLE version of Chex Mix from last Christmas, Jeff made a batch of his own this week. Now, if there is one snack that I can’t put down, its homemade Chex Mix–real butter, Worcestershire Sauce, mix, all toasted for an hour in the oven to coagulate…YUM! We downed this batch in like 3 days tops. (Also in honor of my brother, who made a total of 3-4 entire batches during his week-long visit last year!) Merry Christmas, Cliff.
