Misty Pacifica Hills

Nikon F3HP

The foreground is a path right next to the beach, the grass in the middle is part of a gold course, and of course, the background are the misty hills.

I cannot remember if I shot this with the 50mm f1.4 or the 24mm f2.0 lens. Any guesses from the peanut gallery? :)

This is a beautiful shot, Warren. It looks like a morning shot. I like the way the fog makes the hills look mysterious and like they exist in another dimension.

Warren, the image has a timeless quality for me, my guess is the 24mm

Warren,
Isn't this the Sharp Park Golf course. Some interesting history to this course. The same man the built Pebble Beach designed and built this course.....it is very old.

Nice composition with using the low level fog.....more shots to make me home sick. I played this course once per week. :( I loved the fog...

Warren,

Nice use of the lines leading us to the top of the hill with the people. I wonder what is just over the hill.

Warren,

Very dramatic. Looks like you were shooting through a tube. Did you do this on purpose? The shot is very clean, with the waves and the distance very clear.

Thanks Dolph. The vignetting is a characteristic of the 24mm f2.0 lens under certain light conditions. I accentuated it by adjusting some levels. The dark area on the bottom is the edge of the cliff at Mori Point.

Warren, very effective use of vignetting. Adds a richness and mystery to the image.

Nice pics Warren. The third pic carries itself off as just as interesting as peoples facial expressions. I'm not sure why I think of it that way but I really enjoy the variety of shapes colours and textures!

Warren,

All three of the shots show life different. I like the last, because it demonstrates the changes over time.

Two Kids at the Chinatown Fair

We went to the Chinatown Flower Fair a couple of weekends ago. It's always fun to snap candids of the kids-in-arms. :)
