This winter I’ve shot mostly close to home. Which is unusual for me. I love to travel and the joy of being in a new location always inspires me.

Last week, I headed to San Francisco for an editorial shoot that will be published later this spring. After the shoot was over, I grabbed a helicopter for a couple of hours of personal shooting. Shooting mostly abstract aerials from a San Francisco shot list I have added to over the years. A few images were for stock and a few just for the joy of seeing.

It was time to explore for a while and check out Point Reyes, Inverness and the famous Route One along the shore. After a few hours of driving in the fog, it was time to find some sunlight again. I spent part of the afternoon chasing windmills and enjoying the crisp sunlight and solitude of a day with no expectations other than making my dead-eye flight out of Oakland late that evening.

I finally got the chance to hang out for a bit with a former assistant who has done quite well. Lenny Gonzalez and his lovely bride Susie, live in Alameda with their two children. Lenny shoots editorial, musicians and corporate while Susie shoots weddings.

It was a good trip: successful images for my client plus a day of relaxing travel for me.
