Winter sunset

Published on November 29th, 2004

sunset

Here is todays sunset over the San Francisco Golden Gate bridge. Winter has finally hit as the temperature today dropped to a chilly 60-degress midday. Brrrrr. Yes, it gets colder at night with 40 as the low, which is about as cold as it gets. I only mention this because I watched Sunday Night football with the Raiders versus Denver and it was snowing!! You’d think they were in Alberta.

Now, that’s a nice one! Much better than that previous photo.

Just wanted to say, GREAT PHOTO. I spend a fair amount of time with photography (hobby) and I appreciate the “eye” you have for composition.

Pretty shot. But it’s still in California John. It’s not like back here in “The States”.

Snow? No snow here in Central Alberta. Temperatures climb above freezing nearly every day still. Barely need to wear a coat.

Absolutely beautiful, was this taken with your digital?

Thanks. I guess I’ll have to shoot a few more sunsets as the sun sets between the bridge spans over the next month.

Yes, shot digitally with the SD-10 and reduced to fit this page.

I love photographs, especially of clouds. Excellent shot.

Beautiful photo. Entertaining, interesting blog.

Can you please post or send a larger image?

Is there no limit to your skills, Mr. Dvorak? Writing, photography…what else?

Seriously, great pic. Bob has a point: you captured an amazingly fleeting moment, and did so exceptionally well.

I have a spare Columbia parka in my closet if the things get too cold for you. I guess a mid-winter visit to my old hometown – Montreal – is out of the question, then.

Keep ‘em coming. The world needs more good tech columnists.

John, you’re surrounded by shutterbugs! We had our first “normal” powder snowfall over the weekend and the shapes among the rabbit brush and windblown snow sculptures — on a very small scale — have me trying to remember to bring the camera along on the next dog-walking, today.

And I agree with everyone else. You caught a lovely moment.

Any chance of getting a 1600 X 1200 .jpg of this outstanding shot? It would make an excellent desktop wallpaper. It is really beautiful!

i’LL post the wallpaper version (link) tonight..

This photo isn’t nice. It shows ugly chemtrails polltuting the U.S.!
Hm, sadly that many people already think, they would be natural these clouds…
