Found another hummingbird nest.

No shit! I don't have a sense of the scale, but I guess it's super tiny.

Take with the iPhone, something I'm using a lot more these days.

Cropped or did you do the vertical panoramic method?

Yeah, hard to get a sense of scale. They are about the size of a thimble...assuming there is a standard size thimble...and people would know what that size is.

Wow, yeah, I don't know what I had in my head, but that is insanely small.

Took a diameter measurement of the opening of an empty hummingbird nest on the same tree, abandoned as the babies already matured and left. It's about 1.75 inches. So 2 babies fit into that with some room to move.

Daly City, the city I grew up in as a child that gets sort of a bad rap in the Bay Area so my goal is to show the beauty of it. One cool thing about all of SF is the colorful homes that dot all the hillsides.

I would have loved to live in Daly City. Close to 280, the ocean, and a ten minute BART ride into SF. Perfect.

Very nice. For about 15 years I’ve been using photos I took of the pantheon as my desktop background. When I returned there a second time a couple of years ago I replaced them with new photos taken at higher res on newer cameras.

It is such an astonishing building…

Yep, I love it. Last time we went, we stayed in the hotel right across the piazza. We would just open our window at night and stare at it all lit up, listening to a guy playing Pink Floyd on guitar down below.
