PHOTOGRAPHY: ORANGE SF
This past Wednesday for the first time in my memory tomorrow's sunrise seemed uncertain. The entire city of San Francisco and much of the Bay Area woke up wondering what on earth is going on and what has happened to Mother Time. It felt like dawn at midday with street lights ignited and cars moving slowly and deliberately with the beams on. What else can 2020 bring? Well, on that day it brought everyone with a camera or phone to the streets or to their windows to capture the rare and bizarre rusty red sky above.

SHOP: ROLLING STONES
The old kids on the block The ROLLING STONES have just opened a brick and mortar store RS NO. 9 Carnaby in London. Good news, there is also an online component. It's the ultimate music merch store with music, fashion, accessories, and all things Stones. Check out the goods, but no touching at Rolling Stones.com. It's only Rock 'n Roll but I like it.
