Half Moon Bay in the Fog

My husband and I love walking on the Coastal Trail in Half Moon Bay. The trail runs alongside the ocean, on a bluff, and offer amazing views of the water and, if you are there are the right time, of the sunset too. It is no surprise then that we decided to go there for a morning hike on Fathers' Day. We were there early in the morning, the fog was thick and low and the air was still and quiet. It was perfect. And, to make things even better, there were lots of fun flowers in full bloom! Gotta love California!

Red Poppies

For Father's Day, our family went for a morning walk in Half Moon Bay. Right before reaching the parking lot, we noticed a patch of red poppies on the side of the road. Immediately, I knew I wanted to walk back to that spot to photograph the poppies as I had never seen red poppies before. The beautiful flowers were in bushes of other flowers so it was hard to just get a photo of them by themselves. Here's my best attempt as capturing their scarlet beauty!

Iron Work

When you walk around your town or city, how much attention do you pay to your surrounding? Do you walk the same streets never noticing anything new? Or do you keep finding new things in old places?

Photography has made me become more aware of what's around me. It has made my eyes better notice the beauty that is found in simple things, in regular objects. One such thing is iron work. San Francisco has a lot of beautiful iron gates and iron benches spread out around the city. In this post, I'm presenting just a very small sample I found walking around Pacific Height and the Presidio area. Hope you enjoy them!

Tank Hill in San Francisco

A week or two ago, we finally walked up Tank Hill in San Francisco. Starting around Acme Alley, going through Kite Hill and up the Pemberton steps, we reached Tank Hill and were able to take in the amazing views of San Francisco that it offers.

Lavender

Lavender is in full bloom at the park I go for a walk every morning to exercise my pup and give my baby boy a fun outing. For the past few days, the hills kept turning more and more purple. I'm glad I finally remembered to bring my camera with me!
