This is Joe Fong. San Francisco OG. Beloved figure in the Bay Area skate community. Photographed by @jaywatsonphoto Jay has been doing this for decades across editorial, advertising, and documentary work.

First time? They been playing together for over a year. Is this by circumstance or is LBJ just selfish? If my son and I were in the NBA, I would be the king of assists! Same with my Dad (and he would have an epic trash talk game)

Today’s whip.

The Bradly Beal buyout is incredible: "After a buyout w/ the Phoenix Suns, Bradley Beal will still be owed $97 million over the next 2 years, but this amount will likely be stretched over 5 years by the Suns through 2029-30. Beal is giving back $13.9M of the $110.8M owed."

Photographers and artists. Do it! Use this easy link to email Congress and the President. Thanks @Unite4Copyright copyrightalliance.org/get-involved/t…

@HandsomeHawk250 @theScore @KimGrinolds Good on offense but a defensive liability. It’s seems like once that side is exposed - the career goes downhill quickly. Hope he makes it back!

@theScore @KimGrinolds I feel like they need to do a 30 for 30 on why he hasn’t gotten a real shot in the league all these years.

ISAIAH THOMAS WENT OFF IN HIS G LEAGUE SEASON DEBUT. ⭐️ NBA comeback loading?? 👀

Hey freelancers, artists, photographers? Do the LA fires make you think about your backup and archive strategy? Time to improve? It's on my mind.

ICE COLD FACT 💎

Everyone is worried about AI growing out of control and turning on the people. Hasn’t this already happened with our government

@Split2ndPhoto Right! Huge difference. Now if @photoshelter would finally update their templates to the needs of users in 2024... we would be even more stoked.

@jaywatsonphoto Wow! You weren’t kidding. This new tool has literally changed my life!! Thank you!!

Just used @photoshelter new Photo Uploader to deliver 1485 high res images to a client. Only took 45 minutes vs 8 hours with a web browser upload. Like a champ!

@Split2ndPhoto I've done it too! Try the Uploader and get more rest. Forgot to mention this job was 38GB of final files.

@jaywatsonphoto I recently lost 3 hours sleep in one night due to upload issues. Thanks for mentioning this. I’ll give it a try!
