Sometimes things just fit together. Speaking of vintage cars..next week I'm going on a ten day trip to Cuba. I'm stocking up on memory right now.
Windansea
A colleague of mine told me to check out the beach area named Windansea. Even though it's just a few minutes drive from home, I haven't been there yet. Her description was pretty easy: hit the beach when you see the 7-eleven - and here we are.
Sitting Surfer
During the period when I photographed New York City I sometimes got to hear requests to finally start photographing something else. Those voices got pretty quiet when I started photographing the beaches over here in California, but now it starts again from other sides: "enough with the beaches", etc. I guess you have to deal with it until I move to Europe. This will be in less than six weeks.
Sixth Ave
Was about to jump a fence for this one - until I saw the open gate.
Washed Out
Most important things to have for such pictures are a neutral density filter and a heater to dry your shoes later on.
Moonlight Delight
Saw the moon last night? Down here in San Diego the sky was so bright, it seemed like a never ending magic hour - or whatever you call the minutes right after sunset. The dark blue night sky made me walk through my neighborhood a little, and this is what I brought home. You might not expect it, but this picture is not an HDR. It's the combined light from the moon, passing cars, and street lamps. All captured within a single exposure that lasted 30 seconds.
