Sunset at Bauline Marina, Newfoundland

Bauline is a small fishing community of about 400 people on Conception Bay, Newfoundland. It’s located about a 30 minute drive from St. John’s.

I visited Bauline in September and was lucky enough to come upon this marina just as the sun was setting over Conception Bay. It was a beautiful sight. The seagulls overhead seemed to enjoy the crisp autumn air as much as I did!

Late Autumn Sunset

Late Autumn Sunset

It was very nice to see the sunshine out in full force today after a week of much fog and rain. After work I dressed up warm – the autumn air is getting very chilly! – and went for a walk. I took this photo on a walking trail not far from my home in St. John’s, Newfoundland. This small pond is a temporary calm point in the Virgina River where the water slows to a crawl before flowing under the bridge and swiftly downstream again.

There are only a few colours of autumn left showing in the trees this year, the weather has stripped most of the leaves from the trees. The colours in the sky as the sun set this evening however more than made up the difference.

Autumn Colours - Lewisporte, Newfoundland

I captured this colorful scene at the train park river trail in Lewisporte, Newfoundland over the Thanksgiving Weekend. There is no better time of the year than fall to bring out the beautiful colours of nature.

San Francisco / Oakland Bay Bridge

San Francisco/Oakland Bay Bridge

This is the beautiful bay bridge that connects the San Francisco Peninsula to Oakland and the East Bay. I captured this photo from atop Yerba Buena Island on a great overlook looking almost directly down on the bridge and towards San Francisco (“The City”).

If you look closely at the large version of the photo, you can see streaks of white and red light, the result of car headlights and taillights being captured with a slow shutter setting on my camera. I was pleased with the lighting effect of this night shot.

Tropical Sunset?

Sunset, Northern California

The sunset as viewed from my balcony in Northern California last evening. The range of colors in the sky was absolutely breathtaking! While I wouldn’t exactly call Northern California “tropical”, it did remind me of postcards with tropical sunset photos from Hawaii/etc.

Beach Fencepost

Crissy Field Beach, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco

I was in San Francisco at Crissy Field on Sunday to watch the Blue Angels and the airshow as part of 2008 Fleet Week. While walking alone the shoreline trail I saw this rough fence post leaning to one side with the Golden Gate bridge in the background. The bay was filled with boats that day to watch the festivities above, you can still see some in the photo despite most having left shortly after the airshow ended.

Mt. Diablo Sunrise

Sunrise over Mount Diablo, Walnut Creek

Sunrise over Mount Diablo in Walnut Creek, California I captured one morning earlier this month.

As the year draws to an end, it’s getting much easier to capture sunrise/early morning shots as you no longer have to get out of bed at such a difficult hour!

Light Among the John Muir Redwoods

Muir Woods National Monument, Mill Valley, CA

I took this photo while hiking at the John Muir Woods National Monument, just north of San Francisco, California. These giant redwood trees tower hundreds of feet overhead and nearly block out all light on the forest floor below. If you view the large version of this photo (link below), you can just see a fencepost in the bottom right corner of the photo, which gives you an idea of the size of these trees.
