Sign of the Times

Shot March, 2011 at Salton Sea's Bombay Beach. I had been here a bunch of times but this was the first time I saw this bizarre sign way out in the lake. I'm not sure why it was put there but I thought it made for an interesting subject.

Another shot of my favorite pier at Hearst State Beach in San Simeon, CA after sunset. I keep reshooting this composition - I'm not sure why. Something about it grabs me. I had planned to try this in HDR for a while so I shot this with three separate exposures tonemapped later in Photomatix.

Dead End!
Description
I shot this in Alviso, CA just north of San Jose, CA. Alviso is located at the southern-most tip of the San Francisco Bay and is a small town that's literally sinking a little bit each year. I have no idea what function these doorways serve since they lead to nothing but swamp land and muck but they seemed interesting to photograph.

Ocean Pier at Dusk
Description
Taken (06/23/01) at Hearst State Beach in San Simeon CA, down highway 1 from Hearst Castle well after sunset. The beach was closed for repairs but I ignored the signs and shot there anyway. I had taken shots of this pier before and wanted to reshoot it. Shortly after I took this I was chased off by the police, but at least I got the shots I wanted.
