That's Black Sands Beach way down there -- you can only see part of it in this photo. Quite a hike down there, and even more challenging on the way back up. On a warm weekend Black Sands Beach is thick with nude sunbathers -- so be forewarned -- bring sunscreeen...
I took that first photo (above) a few days ago, but the following six photos were shot over two years ago with my old camera. They aren't of the highest resolution, but I think they'll do...

Even in these days of modern transportation a lot of stuff still gets barged in and out of the Golden Gate. I guess it's still the most economical way.

Some days it's quite a light show out on the Golden Gate... The water looks fairly placid in this shot, but it's often choppy in this area -- boaters call it the potato patch.

The Marin Headlands has been a strategic defensive position going all the way back to -- believe it or not -- the Civil War.

Oh, I suppose these days ships have radar and GPS to keep them out of trouble, but I don't think lighthouses are going away any time soon.

OH HI JOANNE -- Hope you get your computer problem sorted out -- keep in mind that I recommended a Mac (life, for me, without Windows is awesome)...
And I'm using extension-tubes with my 70-200 "L" zoom... I find they work fine and are cheaper than investing in another lens -- those macros can get expensive...
Beautiful pictures Don. I love the fog hanging off in the distance. Your shots are so different from the usual ones I see of the City gateways and ocean vistas. Really love your work.
Gorgeous light. Nothing better than a little fog or cloud with the sun poking through.
Thanks for sharing.
