I was out early on this morning but the construction workers had already beat me to the punch. Here the laborers are preparing to work against the backdrop of the ever changing San Francisco skyline. I guess everybody but me was working on this morn--just the way I like it.

Sunrise as viewed along the San Francisco Embarcadero, the SF-Oakland Bay Bridge looming in the distance. The morning marine layer letting just enough sunlight through to cast the bay in a beautiful gray metallic hue.

The thing about the city is, no matter how dense they pack the buildings, there is still room to grow vertically. Wish my body operated on the same principle--up, instead of out.
The shot was taken from Pier 1 along the Embarcadero looking at the Financial District.

Passengers disembarking the ferry at the San Francisco Ferry Building.
The San Francisco Ferry Building is a terminal for ferries that travel across the San Francisco Bay, a food hall and an office building. It is located on The Embarcadero in San Francisco, California.
I went to an event at Swissnex, located at a pier on Embarcadero in San Francisco, California. This is the view when we left. Next door is the Exploratorium with the colorful Buckyball, in the back you can see the Transamerica Pyramid.
I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from three RAW exposures, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

Took an early morning jaunt to San Francisco on a Sunday morning. I went when there was hardly anyone around.
A sculpture, "Cupid's Span" by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen, was built in 2003 along the Rincon Park area. Resembling Cupid's bow and arrow with the arrow implanted in the ground, the statue was inspired by San Francisco's reputation as the home port of Eros, hence the the stereotypical bow and arrow of Cupid.[2]

Rain returned to San Francisco on Saturday but stopped just long enough for a visit to Rincon Park along The Embarcadero for some long exposure work.

One of the many stairs of The Embarcadero Shopping Center. Typical shot of this, but I threw in my HDR touch :).

Another picture of the Bay Bridge except this time I included the Pier 14 dock :).
What I like about the B+W version is that the pier looks so dimensional, almost 3D, eh? ;) Without the colors acting as a distraction, you can see the dimensions better.
Please be sure to check it out the colored version of this photo!

I joined a photo class in San Francisco, this time as a student instead of an instructor. We started at the Ferry Terminal and walked along the Embarcadero. Instructor Jerry Downs had some fun jumping into a puddle of water at Pier 14.

The Port of San Francisco was once the largest and most congested port on the entire West Coast. It featured numerous piers perpendicular to the coast where cargo was unloaded manually or by cranes and transported to nearby warehouses. The port received and shipped cargoes to trans-Pacific and Atlantic destinations, and was the center of the West Coast Timber Trade. The West Coast Port Strike of 1934, a major episode in America's labor movement, brought the port to a standstill.
Many docks remained abandoned until the demolition of the Embarcadero Freeway reopened the dock area in the center of the city, thus allowing its development to resume. The centerpiece of the port, the Ferry Building, which still hosts worker-hauling ferries, has been restructured and rebuilt as a gourmet produce market.
El Puerto de San Francisco fue antaño el puerto más grande y congestionado de toda la costa oeste. Presentaba numerosos muelles perpendiculares a la costa donde la carga era descargada manualmente o mediante grúas y transportada a los almacenes cercanos. El puerto recibía y mandaba cargas a destinos transpacíficos y atlánticos, y era el centro del Comercio de madera en la costa oeste. La Huelga portuaria de la costa oeste de 1934, un importante episodio en el movimiento laboral de Estados Unidos, llevó al puerto a un estancamiento.
Muchos muelles permanecieron abandonados hasta que la demolición del Embarcadero Freeway reabrió la zona de muelles en el centro de la ciudad, y permitiendo así retomar su desarrollo. La pieza central del puerto, el edificio Ferry, el cual todavía recibe ferrys de transporte de trabajadores, ha sido reestructurado y reconstruido como un mercado de productos gourmet.
San Francisco (California/ USA).
On this particular day there was no wind on the Embarcadero.
It was just one beautiful day by the Bay.

One of the best things about shooting in the city is the easy access to alcohol! I happened to get lucky in picking this particular establishment, the Waterbar. This beautiful hand blown glass light fixture is placed in front of a large floor to ceiling window framing the Bay Bridge in the background.
