When inspiration calls, you just have to pull over, postpone lunch, and grab the camera. And that was exactly what I did. Dannie and I were on our way to lunch when we saw massive hoards of "Santa Clauses" marching down the streets of SF, spilling out from every corner and every direction. It was an amazing sight! That's what I love about this city. Its vibrance is intoxicating. And if that's not enough, there was definitely plenty of alcohol to intoxicate the entire state of California. I only meant to hop out of the car briefly but one Santa after another and I found myself in the middle of the crowd giving posing directions and snapping away. Where have I been all of these years? Who's joining me next year?!

Here are some images for your enjoyment.

Till next time, Ngoc.

P.S., if you met me from that day, leave a message to say 'Hi!"
