Lorelei’s Birthday!
A couple weeks ago I was working in Arizona getting ready to head out for a week of biking and I get an email in my inbox. It was Mike wanting to know if I was around to take photos of his wife Lorelei’s surprise birthday.
“Where are you going?”, I asked.
“I’m taking her GoKarting.” Mike replied.
“Awesome! I’ll be there!”, I wrote back excitedly.
I couldn’t wait to see how I was going to capture this. Low lights and FAST cars? It would be tricky. But I was up for the challenge! On a dreary Saturday morning Mike surprised Lorelei to the best of his ability. Waiting for her at the GoKArt track were a group of her good friends ready to tear it up on the track. They spent the afternoon going around in adrenaline pumping circles reaching speeds of 30MPH. If the day couldn’t get any better, afterwards the group headed to a local restaurant to celebrate another great Lorelei year. Below are a few of my favorites from the day.
Happy Birthday Lorelei!

Red Red Beets
On a cold and wet day in Oakland today I headed to the local farmers market and after 30 minutes of viewing fresh organic vegetables and fruits I walked away with some amazing produce. The highlight, apart from the sinful almond torte and hot coffee to go, were the beets! It’s been forever since I’ve cooked with them so tonight I cooked up a simple roasted beet, chicken, and fennel salad. Enjoy!
April 11, 2010 - 10:03 pm - Wooooooooow! Amazing photo of the beets!! And that salad looks yummy.
April 12, 2010 - 7:55 pm - What a bachelor meal......it beets (!) a bowl of wheaties or cold, leftover pizza.
April 12, 2010 - 7:58 pm - Yikes! What a picture of those beets!!! Great perspective! Did you roast them for the salad, or was the chicken the roasted part? It sure looks like dynamite bachelor food :) Yum!
Arizona Night Sky
A day before I headed back to the bay area I took this brief shot of the Tucson night sky. On a clear night the stars shine bright as can be because of the lack of “light pollution” in the city. I snapped this quick shot on the outskirts of town. If you look close you can see two stars as the sun was setting. The first, and largest being Venus. Then 5 minutes later when I got a bit darker you could see Mercury.
April 7, 2010 - 12:33 am - Wow!! The sky looks like a watercolor painting! You always capture the moments so well ;) Very cool shot.
April 7, 2010 - 10:40 am - when did you become so well versed in astrology? beautiful pic!
April 11, 2010 - 8:00 pm - Uhhhhhhhh! Nice capture!
