This weekend things kickoff at Icer Air 2007 here in San Francisco. World class skiers and snowboarders face off in an extreme sport competition at AT&T Park in the heart of downtown San Francisco.

In case you didn’t know today is “Blog Action Day“. In the theme of environmental awareness I’m posting two recent photos that exemplify our day-to-day impact on the environment. Nothing brings social issues to the forefront of thought more so than photography. My challenge to those that read this post… point me to your favorite social documentary photograph highlighting the impact we ha
