Alcatraz Island - San Francisco, CA

    This image is from a recent Fog chasing trip to San Francisco with James. As usual eight out of ten times the fog was to thick, too high etc... On this morning the sky was covered in heavy clouds. The sun was rising behind the thick clouds and for a moment the light beams came out right above the Famous Alcatraz Island. I, of course drove really fast, pulled over and shot away a few frames before the light beams disappeared. I went dark and moody here because of the scene and history behind this place.

    I want to thank all of you for your constant support and visits. I want to wish you all Happy Holidays and a safe New Year and may the light be with you in 2012 my friends. Jave

      Jave, I've been so out of the loop that I just realized you had another kid!! Congrats man. Hope you had a great holiday with the fam and a Happy New Year. As for this shot, it's really sweet. Very moody. And it's something a little different from you, which is cool.

      beautiful tones! I like how it goes almost completely dark. Have you tried a centered composition?
