Woman versus Sea

The View

From Singapore.

Big Sur

Just one of many spectacular views right off Highway 1 on the central coast.

Above It All

Melanie and I went out last night to watch the sunset. She watched the sunset and looked at her phone and I snapped pictures continuously. It was a truly magical fog night to be up in Berkeley Hills.

Catedral de Barcelona

I'm in Barcelona this week for work but got the afternoon off to explore a bit. If you get a chance, highly recommend spending some time in the Gothic Quarter.

Lightrays

Point Cabrillo Lighthouse in Mendecino County, CA.

First Times

I went to Lake Tahoe recently for the first time. It was amazing. I can't believe how big it is and I dong't think I've ever seen a clearer lake. I'm looking forward to coming back in the winter.

Slacker Sunrise with sampost

Met up with a Flickr friend sampost this morning at 5:15. We happened to pull into the parking lot near the roundabout at exactly the same time, which is convenient since we'd never met in person. He's obviously in much better shape than I am, since the hike up Slacker seemed to be no issue at all for him but I needed to pause at least 3 times to catch my breath. Anyways, sunrise was totally brilliant this morning. No fog, but the cloud cover was phenomenal.

Fire Consumes Bridge

From the last Drink & Click. While everyone was at the Palace of Fine Arts, I ran to catch the sunset over the Golden Gate which was quite special that evening. This is one of my favorite Golden Images I've taken.

Beach Balls

From Bowling Ball Beach. I look forward to visiting here when we have a bit more time and better conditions, but still had a fantastic time with friends.

Met a few new great photographers shooting the Bay Bridge last night at sunset, so we decided to try to find our way down below the bridge. Success! First published shot with the new d600, and I don't know about you all, but I can really tell the difference. So happy with my purchase so far.

I think this is the best picture I've ever taken. Taken from Middle Harbor Shoreline Park in Oakland. Enjoy.

Opportune Moments

I was very fortunate to be back at One Market today when we looked out the window to see fog streaming over the Bay Bridge. Its a rare moment and I feel lucky to have been in the right place at the right time to catch this from this perspective.

Everything But the Batsignal

The nightly light show from looking out on Victoria Harbor & Hong Kong island from Kowloon Peninsula.

Into the Ether

Shooting in Berkeley Hills a week ago wasn't incredibly rewarding from a Bay Area Landscape point of view, but I did get this telephoto long exposure which coming back to a week later I find incredibly eery. What goes on beyond that last line of trees?

Peaking above the clouds

Went to the Marin Headlands on Wednesday. Saw +Larry Nienkark and +Todd Draper, among others. Had a great time shooting the sunrise. The fog was fantastic and I was able to get a few good shots in.

Waimoku Falls

Beautiful two mile hike up to these falls in Haleakala National Park in Maui.

New Years Tradition

Second year in a row I've pointed my camera towards a San Francisco cityscape on New Years Day. This year was even better than the last. I think I'm going to make this a new tradition.

From Baker Beach, 11-18-12, before sunrise.

Winter is the Season

For beautiful sunsets. From Treasure Island.
