18 September 2007 Red and Green Leaf

I like how only a narrow swathe of this leaf is in focus. This guy, however, is a master at this.

    Wow, what a small world. I used to work with Dan (“this guy”) at Yahoo. I had no idea he was into photography, and likely he had no idea about me. I always felt bad because I sort of put my foot in my mouth the first time I met him in 1997, making a negative comment about one of our sites that turned out he had designed. I think I bought him a beer to try to make up for it (we were at a bar with a bunch of Yahoos at the time), but I never have been able to forget. Sorry Dan!

    When I saw he worked at Yahoo a long time ago I thought about asking you if you knew him, but then thought “Naww….”

    I ran across his site when someone on Dpreview linked to it (because he uses the 85mm PC tilt/shift). Come to think of it, that’s how I ran across your site to begin with as well.

    Friedl, you punk! I remember that night! :-) No, no worries, the beer erased all hard feelings. You do photography too? Very cool! This all goes under the heading of “small world”.

    Oh and Zach, thanks for the link again! Very cool leaf perspective.
