Even when the Giants don’t win (although it’s obviously much more fun when they do win), it’s still awfully nice to spend a summer afternoon at the ballpark.
I love the light in the last few hours of the day. Definitely one of my favorite times to take photos.

For the second year in a row, the Amgen Tour of California passed through my neck of the woods. Fortunately, unlike last year, the weather was much better for bike racing (as well as taking photos). As always all of these photos (and a few more) are also available on Flickr.

So far in this still-brand-new baseball season, I’ve attended two games. Both were Giants victories, which is a very good thing. Both were highly entertaining, which is, again, a very good thing. Both were also incredibly long marathon sessions at the ballpark, one being the Giants’ 13-inning home opener and the other being the Giants’ victory over the Braves on Sunday which came after a four hour, nine minute rain delay. I’ll have photos from the Sunday game up later, but for now, here are some shots I took on Friday for the home opener. Unlike last year (and unlike on Sunday), the weather was perfect. Having the Giants enter as a team from center field was awesome. Having Jerry Rice throw the first pitch to Steve Young was incredibly cool. And seeing the Giants come back to win in the 13th inning was just icing on the cake. At least this 2010 Giants team looks like they’ll be quite entertaining to watch this summer.
As always, you can find a full gallery of these photos (plus some extras) on Flickr.

I took this photo last year on opening day. It’s probably one of my favorite photos of the zillions I took last year. By the time the Giants finished the game (and won!), looking at the gorgeous blue skies, you never would have guessed that it had been raining like crazy just a few hours before. It was my first opening day, and it was so incredibly awesome that as soon as I had the chance to buy tickets for this season, the first thing I did was snap up a pair for opening day. The Giants open on the road this year (in Houston in about an hour, and I’m VERY EXCITED), but come Friday when they head back home to AT&T Park, I’ll be there for all of the pomp and circumstance.
I can’t wait.
Baseball, it’s good to have you back.
