Under the Empire
The idiom "you can run but you can't hide" seems to hold true in some cases. Upper Manhattan's hustle and bustle are tough to avoid, even while trying to hide under this unique concrete alcove.
Yerba Buena Blues
The Bay Bridge has two spans, the Oakland approach and the San Francisco approach, shown here. Both approaches connect the side of the bay for which they are named with Yerba Buena Island, which sits in the middle of the Bay. Although a somewhat popular spot among local photographers, my research of this location did not inform me that getting to this vantage point would require entering a USCG base, parking in their employee parking lot, and crawling through a small hole in the fence surrounding the base. Having traveled a long way to take this shot, I figured I'd stick it out until I was, at the very least, politely asked to leave. As a matter of fact, I was never here, and this photograph doesn't actually exist.
Sundown at Battery Park
I enjoyed this sunset just a couple of hours after landing in New York City for the first time. Filled with excitement and trepidation for a workshop I was attending, starting the next morning, this is one of those moments that will be etched in my memory forever.
La Barceloneta
The residential alleys of this neighborhood, near the Mediterranean sea in Barcelona, were full of color and full of life!
Yaquina Head Lighthouse
Built in Paris, the tallest lighthouse in Oregon is still in operation. It can be identified by vessels by it's unique lighting pattern of two seconds on, two seconds off, two seconds on, and fourteen seconds off. The concrete pier behind this 93 foot structure is a popular spot for whale watching.
Embarcadero Glow
The streets of San Francisco at night have their own sounds, unique sights, and an unforgettable feel.
Alcala Gate
Regarded as the first post-Roman modern arch, the Puerta de Alcala, one of Madrid's entry points when it was a walled city under the rule of Philip IV. Having weathered several battles over the years, shrapnel from cannon blasts can still be seen in its masonry.
