Barred Windows and Reflections, The Mission. San Francisco, California. February 20, 2010. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.

Barred windows, mural paint, reflections in the Mission District, San Francisco, California.

Photograph of wall details that I noticed as I walked along 24th street in the Mission. The bars and the mural painting first caught my eye, and then I noticed the many layers including the bars reflected in the glass, nearby passers-by and cars reflected in the windows, and the businesses and other details across the street. I framed up a composition that I sort of liked and waited for this person to walk through the frame. He was actually more or less behind me at first, and I grabbed three frames as he went past – with this one placing him in the middle of one of the windows.

Black and white night photograph of the smokestack and industrial buildings at Mare Island Naval Shipyard. While I usually shoot this subject in color, I like the stark quality of this one in black and white, along with the way that the monochrome rendition emphasizes the forms of the buildings.

A street and railroad tracks pass beneath shipyard structures and past old brick shop buildings at Mare Island Naval Shipyard in dusk light. The museum for this shipyard is housed in the brick building on the left side of the photograph – one of many interesting and historic structures still found at this location.
