At least two probably more of my most satisfying photographic moments were
fog cloaked mornings on the California coast. Correction. Four were
in Coastal California and another was at a rowing regatta on the Connecticut
River nearly 20 years ago. Photographing in thick fog is almost too easy. The
dense, mysterious otherworldly atmosphere makes every shot magical. I
guess that’s the reason that picking ten for Shadow and Light out of a hundred is such a scramble.
Today’s offerings come from the Central Coast and San Francisco. All were taken in early morning soup.
The San Francisco image was accidental. A friend and I had hired a model but
when he was half an hour late, I was able to play near fog shrouded Battery
Godfrey with the Golden Gate Bridge disappearing into the murk.
Succinct is my middle name at least for today.

As always, I take great comfort in your fog photographs from California. The Presidio and Golden Gate Bridge areas yank at the heartstrings and your photographs pull as well. Heck, even Governor Tim Walz just visited San Francisco for the first time recently and thought it was the most beautiful city in the world, despite its problems. Thanks so much for the post visuals!
