Photograph of three ships anchored beyond old dock pilings in luminous morning light on San Francisco Bay.

I frequently ride the Caltrain up to San Francisco on summer mornings and photograph along the Embarcadero waterfront (and other locations). I have been shooting this particular scene for several years now, and I never cease to be amazed when I find such a peaceful and serene subject… standing next to old concrete barriers as commuter traffic whizzes by a few feet away.

Oops!

I missed a day. I was in the Sierra on Sunday and Monday and didn’t get home until 12:05 in the morning.

Perhaps I’ll post two photos today to make up for missing yesterday.
