I took this picture a couple weeks ago on a Sunday afternoon while Patty (my wife) was playing in the pit for Les Miserables. It was a sunny day in most of San Francisco, but the fog line was just inside the bridge.

This picture has undoubtedly been taken thousands (tens of thousands?) of times – go to Fort Point and go to the end of the breakwater at the right side of the fort and there is a small area just to the right of a fence. So, it is not an original but I still like it.

I did not notice the bird nicely centered in the upper section of the bridge when I took the photo. This is slightly ironic since I had tried to time several shots to intentionally include seagulls but had failed miserably.

A New Blog

My friends and family will groan but I’m starting another blog here today.

I have two other blogs where I post my photography: dan’s outside
and G Dan Mitchell | Photography.

***dan’s outside
is where I post about my outdoor interests so photos posted there reflect these themes. For some time I have been taking other photos that don’t really fit at that site. This new site can accommodate photos on any theme.

***G Dan Mitchell | Photography
is where I plan to eventually post the images that I think are my best. However, I often want to post photos that are current but may not ultimately make it to that site. I plan to use this new blog to post lots of images that I want to share but which might not ultimately be posted on the other sites.
