The sky was really pink, and the reflection of that and the bridge in the relatively calm waters of the bay was what first caught my attention. This is my favourite from the series of shots I took of the bridge & sunset sky.

Clock Tower
A shot of the Port of San Francisco Ferry Building clock tower taken at the end of last week when I was commuting on the ferry. I caught the last ferry back over to Alameda, and was there a little early so caught the whole sunset.
Grif also has a photo of the clock tower on his photo blog.
Penguin Photo
The 75 Degrees South blog has a great set of photos of penguins, including the one to the right of a penguin chick being sheltered by one of its parents.
PhotoSydney in London
Ben over at PhotoSydney has been posting some of the photos from his recent European trip. You can see a selection from London on the blog, and even more in his Flickr set. The shot on the right, from Portabello Road in Notting Hill (remember the movie?), is one of my favourites from the collection.
Sunglasses
Earlier in the week I showed the reflection in one lens of this pair of sunglasses. Somebody told me that they didn’t realise that it was a reflection in sunglasses at first, and that it might be better with both lenses visible. So here’s both lenses.
Vegetable Noodles
More food from the picnic last weekend; this time a vegetarian noodle dish.
Flowers
Flowers presented to the hostess at last weekend’s picnic.
Reflection
Another shot from the barbecue yesterday. This one is actually a very tight crop of the original image, concentrating on just the reflection in the lens of the subject’s sunglasses.
Red Peppers
Red peppers on a barbecue. There is another take on the same peppers in my Flickr collection.
Fuji Xerox, Seoul
Outside the window of room 1036 at the Grand Intercontinental Hotel, Seoul is a building with a very bright Fuji Xerox neon advertisement on it. The photo shows the sign at its lowest brightness; the other end of the scale has the whole background area glowing bright-white. At some point in the night though it is turned off – when I woke up this early morning it was off. I had left the curtains and inside shutters open when I went to sleep to make sure I woke up early enough to pack, have breakfast and make it to the airport (anything up to a two hour bus ride from the City Air Terminal in the COEX complex).
As is pretty much always the case in Seoul, there is traffic visible in the bottom of the photo. Everywhere we went by car, we ended up stuck in heavy traffic. there doesn’t seem to be anywhere that is not jammed solid with cars, busses, trucks and motorcycle couriers (who use the pedestrian walkways as well as the streets).
