Images from around the San Francisco Bay Area 


SF 001   Beachcomber and Jumping Dog


SF 004   Moonrise Over Marin Headlands 

I wanted to get the moonrise with the lights of San Francisco shining under the Golden Gate Bridge.


SF 006   Haunted House 

Walking San Francisco at night I saw this spooky image.

SF 008   Wreck of the King Philip 

This is the bow of a wrecked lumber sailing ship from the 1880's. I came back as the high tide was retreating to get the mirrored effect on the beach.


SF 010   October Moonrise at the Dunbarton Bridge 


SF 013   Surf at Heart Rock 

Sunset during a classic Pacific storm off the Sutro Baths.  The waves are partially obscuring a heart-shaped hole in Heart Rock.


SF 012   San Francisco & Golden Gate at Sunrise 

Up at 4am.  Drive 1 hour, hike 45 minutes.  What are the odds of getting a sunrise like this?  The lights of San Francisco are shining under the bridge.


SF 002   Into the Mist 

I was waiting for a sunset that never happened when this guy just walked by me on the beach for a "holy cow" moment.


SF 005 Big Sur Light 

Moody.  The lonely lighthouse and evening fog coming in  off of the Pacific ocean.


SF 007   Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Patch 

It's hard to find a pumpking patch that catches the sunset light.  ...And harder to find one where they won't shoot at you for trespassing


SF 009   New Years Eve San Francisco 


SF 012   Cypress Trees and Fog 

I had to brave traffic to get these light beams right.


 SF 011   Single Poppy

Poppies are notoriously hard to photograph.  The color is so intense it blows out.  I found this one in shadow.
