Between Grant Avenue and Stockton Street in San Francisco we find Chinatown, the second largest Asian community in North America. It is a fantastic place to walk as a tourist, but also an opportunity to dine, shop, and hustle about with the locals. You don’t really need an itinerary to visit this part of San Francisco; wandering around through alleys and hilly streets is enough to keep you entertained for more than a few hours.
I recently spent the day there, exactly one day after the Lunar New Year. Here are some of my photos of the day.

This year, I am joining some of my very talented photographer friends in a project called 10 on 10. We will all take 10 photos on one day and try to tell a story through them by posting them on the 10th of each month. We will be linking to each others' sites to create a blogroll. This project will force me to find beauty where or when I can't see it, and will release my time constraints when photographing the beauty that I do see.

We bought a house a few months ago. Although very tiring, it has been so exciting to unpack and make our house feel cozy and our own. For the month of February, I shot a whole roll of film of our new house on a winter morning. Here are my ten favorites.

Here are my 10 film (did I forget to mention I will try to shoot film!?) photos for the month of January. They tell the story of a quiet Christmas vacation day in my new neighborhood.
