Zeum Plaza Circle. San Francisco, California. May 2, 2008. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
Morning photograph of the circular area of the Zeum plaza with a small group of people.
I frequently photograph in downtown San Francisco while on foot, walking various urban streets and ending up wherever my eyes lead me. On this day I had gone to the City on the train and first wandered along the shoreline of the San Francisco Bay, very familiar photographic territory for me. I headed up Market into the downtown area and then began to loop back toward the Caltrain station, stopping in the Moscone Center area along the way. I crossed the pedestrian bridge and ended up on the walkways and plaza surrounding the “Zeum,” and finding interesting light and almost not people stayed a while to photograph the place before continuing on to my train.

Oak, Sky, and Sun (black and white). Calero Hills, California. April 13, 2008. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
Black and white version of photograph of morning sun rising above an oak tree on a grassy ridge in central California.
For this photograph I was back at one of my most familiar haunts, the Calero Park south of San Jose, California. This area of oak/grassland is seemingly far less “exotic” and distant than some of my other subjects, but it is a favorite of mine. On this spring early morning hike I was perhaps no more than 10 minutes up the trail from the parking lot when I found this beautiful light along side a trail I’ve hiked scores of times.
