While out at the beach watching the marathon, I found a few other things to photograph. This totem pole is looking out over Ocean Beach through the fog and seems to be saying “brrr it’s cold here.”
I really liked this coin operated telescope that seemed to be looking out to the other side of the ocean.
The last couple days have been really windy, with gusts approaching 30mph. It’s normally the bay that gets windy but today the ocean was the place to be. 8 kitesurfers were braving the cold air and water.
After nearly a whole week of mostly unsurfable conditions, the surfers were back at Ocean Beach today getting in a few rides. It was a little too dark for getting any action shots, but I was able to get some cool photos of the sunset.
After days of rain, the skies finally started to clear. Here’s a shot of Ocean Beach at sunset with the Cliff House in the distance.
My first stop this morning was at the Cliff House at Ocean Beach. The swell had come up nicely overnight and the rain had been replaced with sunshine. From the overlook, I could see tons of big waves but not a single surfer. All the waves were closed out. Same situation farther down the beach at Sloat.
Today was the last sunshine the Bay Area is going to see for several days and I grabbed a few shots of some surfers making the most of it.
The waves were far from epic today, but it was a beautiful day at the beach anyway.
I was down at the beach this morning shooting photos of surfers out enjoying the huge surf when I saw this gentleman out for a walk.
