The Curve


There was a great sunset the other day, that showed up at the last minute, as the setting sun dropped below the cloud deck. I didn't think I had much time to get a photo, so I was shooting like a maniac. I was taken by the perspective here, with the gentle curve of this railing along the shoreline, going to the vanishing point. It is subtle, but worth looking at. I tried a longer focus lens, hoping that compressing scene would accent the perspective, but it didn't. This wide-angle view was more effective.

  2. This is shore road in Sea Cliff. If you continue in this direction, you will come to the big power plant about a mile south from here.
