Day 14: South San Francisco Sunset
Day 14: January 14, 2014: South San Francisco Bay
A little bit of sunset action today from the scenic corporate campus. With some time to kill between experiments, I stumbled upon a sunset, low tide, and full moon, all at the same time! What does it mean?!
This area is interesting, and these photos have me thinking about it’s history. A former industrial area before being overcome by the biotech boom, some of the past begins to emerge at low tide. Wandering through the mud this day, I came upon a series of concrete structures that are typically submerged. My guess is some sort of former pier, based on the orderly rows, but I could be completely wrong. From what I’ve been told, this particular spot used to be the home of a paint factory. Could these structures be related to that, or do they predate even this former purpose? How many times has this land changed purpose before it ended up as a biotech campus today? So many changes, so much history. Thoughts and wonders: I has many.
The pinks of the sunset sure were pretty, though.
In other news: I have a photo in the upcoming "Home" Exhibition at Dickerman Prints in San Francisco. The show runs March 22-April 10, with an opening reception tomorrow from 6:30-8 PM. I'll be there tomorrow, so come on down and stop by!
