Last Light

Yesterday evening on Clement Street, San Francisco. Light, shadow 
and the reflection caught my eye. I was  a little early with the shutter.
If I had waited a split second longer the hot spot behind the rider 
would have been covered and the bike shadow on the tile wall would
have been more prominent. It’s a fast moving world!

Morning Scene

I was out early this morning hoping to surf a fresh south swell. The waves didn’t
materialize but the scene out on the Capitola Wharf was pretty nice.
Quiet and funky!

Street Scene

“Pro lift hypocrite, you don’t even give a shit!”
Yesterday afternoon, Pacific Ave. Santa Cruz High School students exercising
their first amendment rights. Young people and poor people will suffer the most
from the religious tyranny being imposed on the country.

View From Ryan Mountain

The Ryan Mountain Trail in Joshua Tree National Park is a short but steep climb. 
The view from the top is one of the best in the park!

On the Road Again

On the drive from Death Valley to Joshua Tree we passed through Amboy, CA.
Amboy is known for Roy’s Motel and Cafe and it’s iconic sign.
The gas station next door to the defunct Roy’s was the attraction for us. We 
grabbed a cold soda, sat for awhile and enjoyed the scene.
I’d love to go back and spend a few hours photographing the place and the people
stopping in for gas and a cold drink.

Desert Sunset

Sunset over Stovepipe Wells. The only editing I did to this photo was a tiny
bit of darkening on the edges and I added the black frame. Amazing sunset!
