Hey Doc

(Gung Hay Fat Choy)
It is embarrassing to admit that I have lived in Bay Area for 30+ years but never went to see the Chinese New Year parade in San Francisco. Yeah, it rained almost every year, seemed like the tradition for the parade. But not this year! I watched very closely for the weather report when I decided to go this year, noticing we may get a break in the weather on that day. Sure enough, it was a cool but sunny day in the city. Another reason I want to go is to test my new camera shooting under low light condition. Many reviewer commented that the new Nikon D700 produces amazing high ISO image. Although I have tested at home and see very nice images but I want to do a real field test to see if this still holds true.


(Could he be the future governor Newsom of California?)
Yep, I shook hand with him right after I took this shot ;) Best looking mayor, I think. I heard that he is considering to enter the governor race in 2010, along with Jerry Brown, Dianne Feinstein are the three top contenders.
