Travis Marina

Posted by: Sean Kane on 02/15/2010

After a busy week at work and very few opportunities to use my camera, I returned to it again over the weekend.  The following four photographs were taken  around Travis Marina just northeast of the Golden Gate Bridge.   A great chance to catch up on my Daily Shoot assignments.

This is Travis Marina with a faux tilt-shift technique applied.

#ds88 – “We often get stuck in a rut of always zooming to the longest focal length. Break out today by making a wide-angle photo.

I love the detail in this pelican.  For this assignment, this is titled “The Pelican Brief”.  Yes, I know it’s literal, but it is a nice pelican portrait.

#ds89 – “Continuing the Friday fun theme, make a photo that goes with the title of a book you’ve read.”

A couple enjoys the view of the San Francisco Bay.

#ds91 – “Sunday (Valentine’s Day) challenge: What is love? Make an interpretive photo today. Keep it clean, people.”

Fog Under the North Tower of Golden Gate Bridge

#ds90 – “Odd or even: Compose an image with an odd or even number of subjects today, and make a photo.”
