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.

Color photograph of sunset at Death Valley Dunes with the Funeral Mountains in the distance.

Yet another photograph from this evening shoot at Death Valley Dunes near Stovepipe Wells. Here the foot of the rugged mountain range along the east side of the Valley (variously called the Amargosa Range or the Funeral Range?) can be see in the distance beyond the dunes.
