I was at Crissy Field in San Francisco last spring. It was one of those amazing days when the sun was out early and so was everyone. I really was trying to look somewhat touristy as I shot images of people out and about on the promenade. Even from a distance, they seemed to know what I was up to.
I liked the way the shadows linked a somewhat disparate grouping of people. Each so individual yet with a common intent, to enjoy the beautiful morning.
One of the things I love about San Francisco is that when the sun shines, and it does, the overall light is a soft, shimmering blue. It doesn't matter where you are, either. What a beautiful place.

This is St. Raphael's near Koloa, Kauai. The old rectory was still standing on the grounds of the modern church. There are plants growing out of the walls. In time, the jungle will consume it. It is a very peaceful, captivating place. I like the strong shadows from the sun overhead and the sense tht by going through doorways, one can step through time.

The Kilauea lighthouse on Kauai stands 52 feet tall and was constructed in 1913. The lens is the largest of its type ever made-I believe it was crafted in France. It is located at the northernmost tip of the Hawaiian Islands. It's beam once reached 90 miles out to sea.
Lighthouses are a popular subject for painters. To avoid 'just another lighthouse', I got down on my knees in front of it and captured photographs that had a totally different perspective. I often paint from my digital photos. I found this image to be strong and protective.
