Dramatic clouds over San Francisco
November 2, 2015. This was one of those days where you could randomly point the camera and get something good. The view is from Fort Point, you can see Torpedo Wharf in the bottom of the scene.
Florida “Night Music”
Actually, it’s very early in the morning in a mangrove swamp. Originally I was just going to post up the sound, but decided to add the time-lapse of the palm trees set against the starry sky, so it’s a bit of a cheat, but that’s show biz.
September 15, 2015: scenes from Yosemite
Ok, here’s the ubiquitous “Tunnel View” scene. Early morning (actually sunrise). Didn’t pan out, but then it never does (why have expectations?), but it’s still beautiful, no?:
Later, same day, here’s a view of Half Dome taken from atop the Sentinel Dome (near Glacier Point):
A reverse angle of the previous scene:
Beautifully textured “Red Wall” from Buenos Aires
(couldn’t figure out a better name for this post) Somewhere off a street in Buenos Aires: a long wall which had been painted, re-painted, scraped, postered, scraped, aged, re-painted, graffitied, etc (you get the idea), creating a universe of beautiful textures. I shot a series of still photographs, which I later arranged and processed in Adobe After Effects using simple zooms, dissolves and superimpositions to create this effect.
4th of July, San Francisco (from 5 miles away with heavy fog)
Every year I get to see the 4th of July fireworks show in San Francisco from 5 miles away, in Marin County. this year, heavy fog obscured the view. Here’s the view from 2011:
Scenic view of San Francisco from North Vista Point
April 7th, 2015: Tourists capture the moment at North Vista Point (Marin County), with the hint of a rainbow showing near Alcatraz. Part of The San Francisco Variations, a time-lapse collection.

A Katydid on my window
(At least, I think it’s a katydid) … it was on my Hotel window one morning last summer in NYC.
Another hill of 1,000 climbs
That’s the view from Ring Mountain (hardly a Mountain at 604 feet, but who cares?) on April 11, 2007.
