Traumhaft schöne Aufnahmen, Jane!
Danke schön, Helmut! 🙂
All exceptional! I especially like the night shots and that Galen Rowell quote … I think of that one often.
Thanks, Denise. I’m enjoying night photography lately. You’re a good light chaser. 😉
Incredibly elegant photos and reflections of this dazzling city, Jane. As a Bay Area resident, I am familiar with all of these scenes, and the many people and constant chaos of these venues, yet somehow you managed to find and present the peace and calm and beauty. Exquisite.
Your response means a lot, Jet. Thank you very much and I’m so glad you enjoyed these.
What a wonderful trio of images, Jane – the reds tie it all together. And the bridge, of course! 😉 I love the drama of the first one, with all the “missing pieces.” Very cool!
Thanks so much, Lynn. Glad you like these -the many moods of my muse. (mmmm 😊)
What a view to be able to observe through all kinds of weather, in all seasons, at any time of day….
Love these

So beautiful. What a sky.
Thank you, Lisa. Glad you enjoyed these. 🙂
Really beautiful how you captured the reflections, day or night.
Thanks, Rabirius. I’m so glad you enjoyed these. 😊
Ahhh… you capture her so very, very well. Just makes me want to sigh and soak it in. That first image presented such a delightful puzzle in the first moment.
Thank you, Gunta. Those reflections were unusual and I’ve not seen them so vividly since. Appreciate your thoughts. 😊
Reblogged this on The Reluctant Poet.
Thank you, Chuck. 🤗
Always happy to share your work, Jane!!
xoxo
When you think it cannot get any better, and then you show us these photos! Marvelous!
Thank you, Maria! 🤗
Thank you!
These are wonderful – the second is so sharp, and the sky in the third is beautiful. Thanks, Jane!
Hi Adam, Glad you enjoyed my continuing love letters to the Golden Gate. Thanks so much.
Wonderful images! That second one especially draws me in.

Thanks, Alison. That was a special morning. 🙂
Gorgeous light, Jane. I am noticing in the second image, “Tide pool reflections”, from the first third of the image to left, there is big piece of stranded wood ( I assume), which looks just like an alligator…
Thank you very much, Cornelia. Yes! I see it and it sure does. Fortunately, I haven’t had to worry about alligator sightings since I moved from South Carolina. 🙂
LOL
Tide pool reflection is so clean and balanced. 😍
Thanks so much, Kathy. It’s a wonderful spot. 🙂
Love the stark symmetry composition of the 2nd. picture!
Thanks very much, YC. The tide pool adds a wonderful element. Glad you like it. 🙂
Beautiful images Jane 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed these, Joe. Thank you! 🙂
Stunning, Jane!
Thanks very much, Terri. 🙂
Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our bridge.
Aw, thank you, Michael. It is my pleasure. 🙂
Stunning, Jane. I love the detail in “Tidepool Reflections”!
Thanks so much, Susan. This spot has many surprises. Glad you enjoyed. 🙂
Breathes there a photographer not taken with reflections?
It certainly is true for me, Steve. Thanks for reflecting on this. 🙂
Touché!
Superb, Jane! ❤
Thank you, Eliza. ❤️
Not bad Jane, not bad at all…🙃
Thanks very much, Poetpas. I’ll keep trying. 🙂 🙂
“Upon Reflection”, gorgeous, gorgeous image. GGB doesn’t disappoint, ever. 🙂
Thank you so much, David. The reflections were so vivid that evening! I was looking forward to shooting more the next night and there were none. Happy you like this one, it was exciting to capture. 🙂
Light, indeed, it can make of mar our perception so much. Beautiful demonstration of what your quotation suggests..
Thank you, Paula. You are so good at playing with light. Glad you like this trio- it’s incredible how dynamic it is in the city. I spend a lot of time looking for light, as I am sure you do, too. 🙂
Hi,Jane. Happy Sunday. Thanks for sharing a stunning set of images. Have a great day. Goff
Hi Goff, Happy Sunday to you, too. So glad you enjoyed this set– thanks very much. 🙂
Hi, Jane. My pleasure. Great set of images. Happy Monday. Goff
Love your opener on this one Jane
Thanks, Tina. The clear nights have been beautiful.
Interesting set of images, especially like the night scenes. I too love reflections.
Thank you, Bruce. Nightscapes are such fun to seek out on clear nights…or foggy ones for that matter. Pleased you enjoyed them.
Three excellent shots! I don’t know if “surreal” is the right word for the 2nd tidal pool shot, but it’s just so eye-catching and fantastic.
Hi Robert, Thanks so much. That’s a fantastic spot in the right conditions. So glad you enjoyed this trio. Much appreciated. 🙂
Jane….I just sit amazed at your effort of time (not to mention your sense of vision) that you put into producing images that inspire so many others. They have me in the process of getting off my arse and behind the camera once again. I carried my camera around the outside around my house. A little shooting at some things, but more just trying re-find my vision. Thanx for your visual & written encouragement….blessings….jw
Hi James, How are you feeling? I’m very happy to read your lovely comment- thank you so much- it means a lot coming from your artistic eye. I hope you are able to get out there shooting again soon. Around the house is a good place to start – I think creating art has a healing effect. Good luck and best wishes. 🙂
