Fort Point

On our trip to San Francisco, we arrived at Fort Point 5 minutes before it was to close (great planning on our part).  Fort Point is the old fort located right underneath the south end of the Golden Gate bridge that guarded the entrance to the bay way back when.  So needless to say there wasn't much time to properly compose shots.  This is about the only one that I took that I thought had some interest.

Tillamook Rock Lighthouse

I was looking through some of my photos from my Oregon coast trip a couple of years ago and found this one.  This is Tillamook Rock Light just off the coast at Cannon Beach.  Was fortunate to have some nice sunset light.

Following the Path

I was walking along a path looking for different views of San Francisco when I realized that the path itself could be the subject.

The Golden Gate

Spent a fun evening photographing in the Marin highlands overlooking the Golden Gate.  Unfortunately, no dramatic weather to help the scene out, but still a beautiful view of the city.

Bird's Eye View of Frisco

This is a shot of San Francisco taken in the morning hours. The contrast between the water and the thin layer of fog, as well as, between the city skyline and the sky made it a good choice for B&W.

Hooray.....Photos Recovered!

I had a pleasant surprise earlier this past week.  As I posted back in April, I lost a bunch of photos I had taken on my trip to the San Francisco Bay area when a memory card died on me.  Well, I got a call from LC Technologies, who I had sent my memory card to and they said they were finally able to recover the photos.  Apparently, they had been waiting to receive some new equipment that allowed them to finally be successful.  So big cudos out to LC Technologies.  They were very helpful and persistent.  Of course they had the incentive that they only got paid if they were successful.  But none the less, if anybody ever has a memory card go bad on them I would highly recommend this company.  They can be found at www.lc-tech.com.


The above photo is one of my recovered photos from that trip.  Obviously the Golden Gate taken from the Sausolito side of the bridge.

Mt. Robson

This is shot of Mt. Robson in Jasper National Park in Canada.  This was taken by my wife while she was visiting the park with our daughter.  Even though it was not taken in the best of lighting conditions I thought she did a great job with the composition and I wanted to share it with you.
