Transit riders of all sorts from around the world, including those on San Francisco’s BART and Muni, took part in a “no pants subway ride” Sunday. The event first began in New York in 2002 and has now spread to 44 transit systems in 16 countries. For Sunday afternoon entertainment i hustled around the Muni and BART taking pics of scantily clad urbanites. Check out the pics below

East Bay Express Cover shot 12/16

Mid December i had the privilege of shooting the cover of the East Bay Express (along with several of the feature story photos) located in the Bay Area’s Oakland. The story compared and contrasted the waves of coffee movements since the 1950′s and spotlighted several East Bay coffee shops, Berkeley’s Local 123 and Oakland’s SubRosa.

Here’s the story on the East Bay Express site.

I’ve included the rest of the photos from the photo shoot below.

The annual SF Bike Expo took place this week at San Francisco’s Cow Palace. A day of cyclo-cross racing, mountain bike dirt jump competition, bike fashion show and many vendors selling their wares made for quite the cycling enthusiast event.

The cyclo-cross course wound around the massive Cow Palace property, up and down hills, through mazes or dirt and even through one of the buildings to give the riders the ultimate variety of terrains.  The mountain bike dirt jump competition, featuring a variety of pro’s, took off from the side of a good sized hill and continued through 3 massive jumps to provide an awesome aerial spectacle. Check out the pics below.

Day of the Dead-Mission District, San Francisco CA

Posted on: November 3rd, 2009 by Joe 4 Comments

The Annual Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebration took place last night in San Francisco’s Mission District.  Starting at 7pm the procession wound around from 24th and Bryant to 25th up to Mission and back down 24th.
The annual event offers an opportunity for the diverse communities of SF to blend together in the sharing of this wonderfully rich tradition. Ending in Garfield amongst a variety of shrines, the festivities were a spectacular array of costumes, elaborate face paint and a celebration and remembrance of those who have passed.
