The other place I currently blog is on flickr, where I post most of my photos. Here are some pointy red petals that fell from a tree into the gaps between a cobblestone sidewalk near San Francisco’s Embarcadero. It is one of my most popular pictures, though no one has been too clear about why they like it. It is the cornerstone of my theory that people respond to photos with a lot of red in them, most of our pictures being heavy on blue (usually in the form of sky) and green (grass).
