"Through the Sails" ~ The goal of any photographer visiting an extremely popular travel destination is to try to find a unique perspective of landmarks. This is especially true for the iconic Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. We've all seen dramatic photos of the bridge peaking through dense fog, or with a foreground of waves blurred by a slow shutter. But how many shots have you seen with the bridge framed by a windblown sails? This wasn't a planned shot at all of course, but this composition revealed itself to me just as our catamaran tour was about to pass under the bridge. If this shot wasn't enough, I was also fortunate enough to capture "Sunset Sailboat" just minutes later.
"College of Charleston Gate View" ~ B&W composition of iron gate at Randolph Hall on the College of Charleston campus in South Carolina. A sepia toned version is also available, in my "Charleston in Sepia" gallery.
"Pier 7 Bayscape" ~ The Bay Bridge and the San Francisco Belle grace the colorful view of the Bay from Pier 7. The cities of Oakland and Alameda can also be seen in the distance.
