I snapped this lonesome black cat watching the world go by on a walk many years ago, when I still lived downtown. This little guy (or gal, let's maintain a little mystery) was in a window up on the cusp of Hillcrest, a neighborhood north of downtown. What's going on in that mind: "I'm hungry?...

Apologies for the sophomoric title, but it's true ... I really do wish I had that rack. It's from the San Francisco bookstore, Kayo Books, which specializes in old pop culture books and magazines, including comics, and art. It must have been something given out by a distributor, back in the day (as they say),... Continue Reading →
I know all thoughts are turning to fall right about now, it being pumpkin spice season, but here's a lovely leftover shot of spring in my backyard that I somehow never posted (not even on Instagram, where you can follow me @gg92118). I love that jacaranda tree and just the muted colors ... as I... Continue Reading →
I don't remember when exactly I took this photo, but I love all the hustle and bustle of it. It's of course Central Park in New York City, a park I loved to roam around and take photos in. This pic shows one of the many bridge overpasses scattered throughout the park, and while it... Continue Reading →
I'm just an iPhone photographer taking pictures of sunsets with pink skies in them. This was taken in July 2019 on the last day of Comic-Con, from Roy's restaurant at the Marriott Marquis and Marina. #3 in a series of sunset photos. If you enjoyed this post, please leave a like or a comment and... Continue Reading →
I'm just an iPhone photographer taking pictures of sunsets with seagulls in them. I think this was taken at Seaport Village in San Diego, right after a series of wildfires scorched the region, so it's probably 2007. #2 in a series of sunset photos. If you enjoyed this post, please leave a like or a... Continue Reading →
I'm just an iPhone photographer taking pictures of sunsets with palm trees in them. I'm not sure when or where I took this, to be honest. #1 in a series of sunset photos. If you enjoyed this post, please leave a like or a comment and follow me here and on Instagram@gg92118!
I know I've posted this photo before, but it's one of my all-time favorites. It's rare to see all the neon on this sign working at once, and I lucked out one night at dusk being over in the Sports Arena area on Rosecranz Street at just the right time to see it. The building... Continue Reading →
One thing about living downtown: I had this expansive view due east of San Diego and sometimes it was absolutely spectacular, like this rainbow that appeared right after a particularly swift and violent thunderstorm. I don't miss living downtown—it's a mess, unfortunately—but I do sometimes miss that view, especially when I come across old photos... Continue Reading →
Where you'll find me this week: It's Comic-Con time, people! Get with the program! I have no idea what to expect this year, but I know I'm going, and I know I'll be stomping around downtown most of this week, most of that stomping at the San Diego Convention Center. If you know me and... Continue Reading →
I think of this as my Edward Hopper "Nighthawks" photo: A quiet moment captured at night near a window. This is the Waterstone's bookstore in Leeds, UK, and I just happened upon this conversation and snapped it. I don't know what they were talking about, I don't know if it was good or bad or...

I used to love visiting New York City and roaming around at night, taking photos. Here's Grand Central Station at night with the Chrysler Building to its right and the Park Avenue bridge in the foreground. I sometimes have a mental hunger pang for that city, and then I realize that I may never see... Continue Reading →
Occasionally, when you're sitting in traffic in the middle of Los Angeles, you see sights like this and it's really not so bad ... you know? If you enjoyed this post, please leave a like or a comment and follow me here and on Instagram@gg92118!
This is a side of Liberty Station not often photographed, I guess. Which is a shame, since it's really quite lovely. It's on the far western edge of NTC Park, back near an inlet which separates Liberty Station from San Diego International Airport. That bridge in the background is on Harbor Drive. As usual, I...

Another shot from San Francisco, in fact—if memory serves me right—it's from Chinatown. I guess there was a sale at Sherwin Williams on green paint. I don't know when exactly this shot was taken, but I evidently was drawn to the green, like some Swamp Thing-like photographer. It called and I answered. If you enjoyed... Continue Reading →
