Here’s more close-up detail shot of the super awesome orc statue I received from Blizzard entertainment as a thank you for being a continuous WoW subscriber since it first launched 10 years ago.

Got a pretty great surprise today when I arrived home to find that Blizzard Entertainment had sent me this awesome Orc statue as a thank you for being a 10-Year subscriber to World of Warcraft. Hard to believe it’s been 10 years. I still remember what it was like on day 1 – even though it was a total lag-fest, it was still a complete blast.

Looking forward to getting some more (and better) photos of this guy in the coming days.

Cool porch light at my friend’s house. Her mom made it, which is extra cool.

I’ve got some Diablo III headphones, pretty much entirely because of their awesome glow.

While at the Central Coast Aquarium in Avila Beach today, I got to see their Moon Jellyfish get fed. It was pretty awesome, and the Fuji X100s proved to be up to the task of helping me capture the occasion.

I really loved how the reflection in the window of this classic car created a double-exposure sort of effect.

Here’s another easy photo-a-day fallback shot when you’re not sure what to do and it’s getting late: take a photo of the inside of your spiffy Ikea floor lamp! It provides its own light source and has interesting texture and patterns.
