This narrow alley in San Francisco almost felt like it was closing in on itself. The doorway at the end and across the street just draws you in.
Opening
The first wave of buds on the hydrangea had just started to bloom, and there were plenty of closed buds ready to follow their lead.
Bassi Falls
These rocks with swirling water were at the base of Bassi Falls in the Sierra Nevada. I found some of the smaller pools with interesting water currents to be better than the actual waterfall.
Spheres
The vines at my house produce these spheres that look like berries, but are probably flower buds. They change color as they mature, and you can often see many different colors at once.
Top of the Falls
On a backpacking trip I stayed overnight very near the top of Nevada Falls. This allowed me the unique opportunity of being at the top of the falls all night, and I was able to get some great shots of the sun going down!
Monument
Graceland Cemetery in Chicago has some very cool and very old graves. This is one of them that I tried to focus on one detail and let the rest of the tower fall into the background.
Ship and Bridge
I went to a viewpoint above the Golden Gate Bridge to catch sunset and later get some photos with the night sky in the background. I ended up really liking some of the ones I got before the sun disappeared, like this one of a container ship passing under the bridge.
Old #7
This old piece of brewing equipement at Sierra Nevada in Chico caught my eye. The shape of the old valve handles really stands out.
Monterey Starfish
Diving in Monterey can be pretty dark and cold. I was able to light up this starfish just right to make him pop out from the sandy bottom and seaweed. This was my first dive with a new underwater setup and I was happy with the results
Colored Trees
After the outsidelands concert in San Francisco, they lit up the trees with crazy colored lights. It was very sureal.
