Falling Snow

You wait for it, you wait for it, then you click your shutter and move out of the way as fast as you can.
Sometimes not fast enough...

Paddlers

Stand up paddle boarding seems to be the hottest new craze. Watching the sun set over the Golden Gate Bridge, we could hear these guys casually chatting as they were nearing the broken remnants of the Berkeley municipal pier.

Free wheel

When I don't have my DSLR with me, I still usually have 2 cameras in my bag, but one is funnier than the other because of all the filters I can instantly apply.
This time however, I wanted a different feel so I played on the computer.

Chi va piano va sano e va lontano

The newer cars are zipping left and right, but this truck is in no rush; it's been on the road for 62 years, says its owner, and plans to still be there long after your vehicule has retired :)

Eat Bay Fish Daily?

The graffiti renders the Fish & Game poster unreadable. How do I know whether to eat or not to eat Bay fish daily? But looking at the murky waters below the pier, no fish at all seems like a good option...
