Sutro Sam

Lumix DMC-G5, Lumix 100-300mm

This was taken on Feb. 21st, my birthday. I've been looking for Sutro Sam, a wild river otter who took up residence at the Sutro Bath Ruins, ever since he was mentioned in the local media a couple of months ago. Sutro Sam made an appearance for me that day. After brunch at the Cliff House, we walked down to the bath ruins, where I saw Sam eating a fish at the side of the fresh water pond.

I heard that Sam has not been seen since February 23rd, and may have gone away, either because he has run out of food here, or because he is looking for a mate (it is spring after all). :)

I also took a short video of Sam using the same equipment combo: G5 and 100-300mm lens. I uploaded it to Youtube (link here: Sutro Sam Youtube Video).

Sutro Bath Sunset, Another View

D200, Nikkor 24mm f2.8

A few minutes later than the first one that I posted. It was getting cold, so we left the area but if we had stayed, we would have seen more pinks and reds in the clouds. Oh well, maybe next time...

Sunset at Sutro Baths

D200, Nikkor 24mm f2.8

It was a hot day yesterday, we decided to go out to see the sunset at Sutro Baths to cool down, and were treated to another nice and unique sunset view.

I went out with the D200 yesterday and I'll have more to post later. IQ is spectacular, in my opinion, what do you think? :)

Version Two, for Dan. I changed the white balance to make it a bit warmer, and backed off the vibrancy. Yes, I think this looks more natural. :)

Sunset at Sutro Bath

Panasonic DMC-G1, Lumix 14-45mm

Here is a picture series from a recent sunset walk at the old Sutro Bath ruins. It is now just a large hole where the structure used to be, but it harbors endless photo opportunities. It always looks different every time we go there. I'm still exploring the capabilities of my Panny G1. The black & white pictures in this series were taken with the camera's b&w film mode.

I would love to hear which pictures were your favorites, and I welcome comments, and/or discussion about any or all of them.
