All these are very nice, Conrad. But, the Lake Tahoe shot is a killer. Terrific colors, contrast, and the texture of the water is wonderful.

Cheers,
Ed

Conrad - very nice set of shots. The one that really jumps out at me is #4 at Santa Cruz - I like the way the wave action plays out in that shot.

Thanks for the views.

Super set Conrad, and I'm really liking #2, #3, # #5 and #9, with #2 and #5 stunning.

Thank you Alan! I am hosting my first gallery this weekend and was wondering if I should print and frame #4 at all. Now maybe I will!

Thanks Pixel! I am not really a landscape guy, but I try once in a while to capture whatever beauty presents itself when I'm out!

Ok you are showing off

I thought the first three were great, then you kept posting more! All kidding aside, I really liked 2, 4, and 5.

No no no... I usually shoot wildlife! But when the action dies down, I photograph and document the sights I see. Just thought I'd share. Thanks for the kind words Carlos!

Beautiful set, Conrad. Enjoyed them all.
The 2nd, with the hanging fog reflecting the City's lights, is wonderful.

Good series. Where is Marin Headland? I have been trying to look for a spot that overlooks golden gate, but so far no luck. Care to elaborate for a fellow FM bay area resident?

Thank you Phillip! So to get there from San Francisco, cross the Golden Gate, and take the Alexander exit, keep left at the fork and head towards the San Francisco towards 101N, then left on Sausalito Lateral which becomes Golden Gate Recreational Area, bear right up the hill onto Conzelman Road. From there almost every spot you stop has a terrific veiw slightly different from mine. I took mine from past the lookout point at the very last bend. I hope this helps Phillip!
