a jaunt to Slacker's Ridge

This photo bothered me most of the day yesterday, so this morning I converted it to black-and-white, making it a bit "easier on the eyes"...
Click on the photo to see a comparison between b&w and color.

That is Mount Tamalpais (above) in the background. I was at Slacker' Ridge, right above the Golden Gate Bridge in the Marin Headlands.

The trailhead is just beyond the crest of Conzelman Road. This is the beginning to .4mi of some serious uphill struggle. I hadn't been up here for 40 years. This was a much easier climb when I was young.

Yes, indeed, and we are right above the Golden Gate Bridge. That is a very heavily congested Vista Point on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.
I'll have more from Slacker's Ridge tomorrow.

the world of smoke and mirrors

When I first showed this photo (taken December 5) on Facebook, I didn't explain until a few hours into the deception that the bottom half of the photo was indeed a bit of Photoshop trickery. Oh, I just couldn't resist. The idea came from our local community access TV station that has been showing a mirrored image of the Marin Civic Center which looks, for all intents and purposes, just like a perfect reflection coming off of the nearby lagoon.

Of course, in my photo here of the City, I gave the lower half a bit of a ripple effect, as well as stretching it a bit to make it look a bit more realistic. In reality I doubt if the bay ever has that smooth of a surface.

So anyway, all of this tom-foolery reminded me of a website I did from March 2005 to May 2011, where each and every day I would pair a square image with a rectangular image. The "Daily Duo", and while I had great fun producing it each and every morning I doubt if more than a few people actually followed the site on a regular basis.

It wasn't long before I discovered that sometimes with just one image, I could take a square section of a the left side of a rectangular image, reverse that, then join the square with the rectangle.

Depending on the subject, sometimes the technique worked and sometimes it didn't. In any case, I had g-r-e-a-t  f-u-n with the "Daily Duo", which I believe is the whole point of not only photography, but life in general.

But then Saturday morning, out at Nicasio Reservoir in a foggy 27 degrees I saw it happening--the sun was crushing the fog... As plain as the new day...

And soon you have Sheldon Cooper with his improvement on "rock crushes scissors", thusly; Scissors cuts paper, paper covers rock, rock crushes lizard, lizard poisons Spock, Spock smashes scissors, scissors decapitates lizard, lizard eats paper, paper disproves Spock, Spock vaporizes rock, and as it always has, rock crushes scissors.

Okay, okay, I'll spare you ALL the details--unless you twist-my-arm and REALLY want to hear once again that it took 60,000 gallons of International Orange to paint the Golden Gate Bridge. Or, when built in 1937, at a cost of 35M, it became the world's longest single-span suspension bridge. Currently, the Golden Gate, with its 4200' single span is only the world's 12th longest.

But you know, you might find this a bit more interesting:  I was looking through my book on San Francisco written in 1957 by Barnaby Conrad, where he discusses the uncertain etymology of the name "California".

Some scholars believe that "California" is derived from the two Latin words; calida fornax, meaning hot furnace; or the same in the Spanish language, caliente fornalla. Others think the name owes it origin to words spoken by the Indians and heard by Spanish explorers, which sounded like "California".

early morning down at the Gee-Gee Bridge

photo by Donald Kinney

I wonder if it would be terribly disrespectful to the memory of my parents if I said that I probably grew up in the most unimaginative and unadventurous family on this planet.

But I did, and that is all past history, but I often marvel at how many times, as a kid, us four Kinneys made the arduous 130 mile journey from Pacific Grove to Kentfield here in Marin County w-i-t-h-o-u-t having much fun. The mission was to "see" Grandma, and for dad that meant a dedicated effort to make it from point A to point B, and no fooling around on the way. Certainly there would be no time to stop and admire or walk on the Gee-Gee Bridge. Certainly no time to take a little excursion to the top of the pointed Mount Tamalpais, which was teasingly close to Grandma's house.

This image (above) was made December 6, and when first posted on my Facebook page I explained that, yes, the moon w-a-s in the sky and setting quickly, but just not in this specific location. Keep in mind that when I use a bit of Photoshop trickery I always tell you about it. I have very few secrets.

Falling-in and/or getting soaked to the ankles is pretty darned simple, but making a photo of the Lagunitas Creek is about as difficult as the photog wants to make it. I usually try to keep it simple. Most days I stay dry.

But un-simple--and with tripod half in water and photog mostly out, I managed to get some deep depth-of-field, it being a windless day, and all.

This image is on page 69 of book...   Nicasio, October 2013.

Speaking of books, I've been reading an historical account the Olema and other nearby parts of west Marin County. Logging in this area helped satiate San Francisco's demand for lumber, while the ranches and farms in the Olema Valley produced milk products, pork and beef and chicken and eggs.

That is the Wilkins Ranch home, a bit different than it looked in the late 1800's. Located half way between Bolinas and Olema this ranch was operated by the Randall family, and later by Sarah Randall herself after her husband William died. The house is now well boarded shut, but has reportedly been heavily vandalized on the inside. At one point the National Park Service wanted to tear the old ranch home down but the discovery in the 1980's of a rare big-eared bat colony in the attic has given the place a temporary reprieve.

In the mid-1970's the Federal Government arrived in the Point Reyes area and announced it was buying up everything in sight for the new National Seashore, but would let certain dairy ranches and cattle operations continue under a lease. It has been a cohesive match between public and the Feds until recently when the Feds decided that the "Johnson" Oyster farming operation (now operated by the Lunny family) were not part of the natural landscape and their equipment might actually be doing damage to the bay. The case has been in the courts for a while.

At the end of this row of old Cypress trees is the "receiving" half of radio station KPH, which from 1920 to the 1960's was staffed by a crew keeping track of ship-to-shore communications, dots & dahes--they called it; traffic.

The receiving station is a classic white 1920s Art Deco building, whereas the transmitter site is 20 miles south on the Mesa, near the town of Bolinas.
The reason for the transmitters being so far apart is that powerful outgoing signals would interfere with weaker incoming signals. Operators at the receiving site remotely controlled (keyed) the transmitter by means of a landline connecting the two sites--incoming and outgoing messages could be handled in this one location.

KPH was originally located in San Francisco inside the Palace Hotel (the P&H in KPH), but after being ruined in the 1906 earthquake, operations were moved to Point Reyes, where antennas have clear coverage of the Pacific. Originally operated by RCA, both MCI and Global Wireless owned the facilities in the 1960's until the National Park Service in the 1970's turned all of Point Reyes, including her radio station, into a National Seashore.

KPH was originally not a ship-to-shore telephone company, but broadcast regular bulletins of news, weather and other general information to the shipping community, then relayed business and personal messages to and from individual ships. Station operators also monitored the international distress frequencies for calls from ships in trouble.

With the decline of Morse code the station was retired, but volunteers have preserved it in operating condition so that it can still be heard on the air on weekends and special occasions, sometimes using the alternative callsign KSM and the amateur radio club callsign K6KPH.   Source: Wikipedia.

I'm not saying I am Ansel Adams, but the prnt I could have bought from him in 1963 for $30 is now worth $3000 or more.
