Second Annual San Francisco Bay Osprey Days, part 2
Don’t waste gas! Now that we’ve done our best to capture the ospreys and their nests, Laura, Jean and I decided to shoot more of Mare Island. I’ve shown you some of it in a previous post, but this time I’m working on mastering HDR.
The Island is being transformed into a multi-use area including a golf course, restaurant, museum and more. We went down to the dock to shoot some of the vacant buildings. This is a short post since I mostly wanted to show you the images that weren’t related to the ospreys.
We do try to get as much done during out outings–we don’t want to have to come back again. But, I have a feeling I will be back!
Abandoned warehouses make for great HDR. I had fun playing around with this one.
Here’s a more subtle and natural HDR of a building on the warf.
A warehouse doorway. I love the brick texture.
You can see the reflection of a big yellow crane and more in this warehouse’s windows.
I took this while we were on our walking tour.
While on that tour, we passed an old cemetery.
Oh, those trees. There are nice parts of Mare Island.
Wild flowers blooming.
A view of the bay during our walking tour.
More flowers.
Yikes, traffic!
We stopped to take photos of this old church.
Me, trees!
A nice house that was probably officer quarters when this was a military base.
