Windows and Shadows, Building 101

Windows and Shadows, Building 101. Mare Island Naval Ship Yard, Vallejo, California. August 30, 2009. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.

Night black and white photograph of windows, corrugated metal, and shadows on the front of Building 101, Mare Island Naval Shipyard, Vallejo, California.

This photograph shows details of the facade of Building 101 at the historic Mare Island Naval Ship Yard near Vallejo, California – mainly the large window at the lower left of the front of the building, but also including some shadows cast by various items attached to the building an nearby that caught the light from nearby security lights.

After looking at the gaudy coloration from the artificial lighting on this building I thought it might be interesting – or a relief! – to try a black and white version of the close-up view.

    1. Hi, Judy – and thanks for writing!

      I think I know Building 77, too. I just took a look at some online images to see if I recognized it.

      I do sell prints and license my photographs for other purposes. Let me know what you are interested in and I can give you more details. (There is a “sales” page here at the blog, too, with a bit more information about such things.)

      I will be exhibiting in the SF Bay Area in October as part of the 2013 Artspan San Francisco Open Studios event. I am part of a group called “Studio Nocturne” that has been doing a large open studio exhibit at Fort Mason for over a decade. We’ll be there again this year, and I’ll have a selection of my photographs there – mostly, but not exclusively, night photography. Our exhibit is on October 19-20, with a preview showing on the evening of October 18. More information about the show is available at the Studio Nocturne web site at http://www.studionocturnesf.com/.

      If you are in the South Bay, some of my work will be up at a location in my neighborhood during November and December, too.

      Thanks,

      Dan
