Sky & water sunset photos #2 - older

This is a set of favorite scenes of San Francisco Bay Area light over water and Berkeley, California area (#2)

Most of the bay shots are from my former workwindows through the years at Lawrence Hall of Science, UC Berkeley, atop the Berkeley Hills.

Nicely done! You are capturing some rare light from your window.
Not everyone has such a beautiful view to shoot from!
Keep it up!

Hey!!! I was born in San Francisco and love it. I have visited it every year since I moved. Your pics show the real beauty behind the city. They're GREAT!

Thanks, Nick. My main talent is being situated next to those windows :-)
Guest 27-Feb-2005 13:15
you really do have a talent for catching beautiful images of the sky
Guest 16-Feb-2005 12:33
Well it must be sheer joy to go to work and know that you will see things like this and be able to capture them,

Best Regards
Stephen

Andrys -- Thanks for the kind comments on my pics! I like this gallery -- what stunning views you have? I am reading "1906" right now and these reminded me of the descriptions of the light on the Bay at the turn of the last century. Dave
