Marina State Beach - Marina, California

Taking photographs of beaches may sound simple, but lighting,
contrast, color, weather, moving objects can add to the thought
process.  This purpose of the photograph session was to provide
location shots for future use for couples to get married.  About twenty
minutes into the shoot, the fog arrived.  You can see the affect of the
fog in the Glider gallery.
The making of a panoramic photograph.(hand held)  The pano on the very top was created using the first 7 shots in
the montage below. Creating a pano shot with moving objects presents challenges and interesting "ghosts."
