Golden Gate Bridge, Baker Beach...IR

This doesn't really do justice to how much fog was really there. The IR cuts through some of it but this one is a pretty good example of how thick it was on Monday.

The fog in San Francisco seems to have a life of it's own and would move in and out to the point where this same shot was not possible 30 seconds after taking it. As crazy as it sounds, it was a great fun to shoot in these constantly changing conditions. You could be in the same spot for 10-15 minutes and have several shots that were all completely different.

I can't wait to go back when the sun comes out.

YOU WERE HERE AND DIDN"T CONTACT ME!!!!!

--sorry for shouting--

are you still here? And I've never tried IR in the fog! I think I must try it!

I think IR cuts through haze better than fog. However, when it's really foggy or hazy, even IR can't really help much.

Sometimes the fog can be a benefit...

I'm sorry (he said sheepishly)...we were only out for an extended weekend and were tied up with family stuff and had very little free time. One of Liz's cousins was getting married and that kind of doubled as a family reunion as well. It was a very action packed weekend and we kind of felt like the Griswolds going through the Louvre.

Next time we're out that way, we'll definitely touch base. And hopefully the sun will come out as well.

Yeah, when it was thick I got nothing...

Patience was most certainly a virtue, given what little time we had at each spot, and the fog would only cooperate for very brief times.
