A particularly nice day for photography warranted a side trip on the way to the city; more to come from this shoot…

The full moon over the ocean, near the Sutro Baths in San Francisco.

Although I’ve been to this location previously, this was the first time I’d ever attempted to catch the moonset. I spent a few hours here just taking it in through different perspectives and locations - this upload will be the first of many.

Thirsty!

iPhone panorama. This little camera isn’t too shabby.

This one took a relatively long time to process, but I think the results are worth it. It was difficult getting the colors here to turn out as I wanted them, but it was important that the green was neither too strong or too weak. It would have been easy to erase the lens flares, but I actually like them - there’s no sense pretending this isn’t a photograph.

I used 9 separate exposures for this one - sometimes thats what it takes when the sun is in the frame.
