I am starting to work on reviving this neglected blog. Over the last few years, my photography in the South Bay waned due to some problems with my vision.

As a quick perusal of my preceding posts will suggest I have been on something of a hiatus in my South Bay photography.

On Sunday Wayne, Cris and I went back to the sites around the west lake section of Lake Merced to further explore the redish film at certain sites on the north side of the lake. Wayne took several samples from the water that spills inland from the lake beyond the tule growth and Cris did […]
