PWPresents: nothing yet…. but something soon.

but I just might…

I have been busy busy busy considering adding video to what I do. I have several virtual shopping carts of gear all filled up and I am just waiting on a few things.

In the mean time I am working on an intro (above) and my East Coast videos (below).

What I am looking for from you lovely people is a bit of support, some feedback and encouragement. The videos I hope to create after I am done with all 4 cities will be far different from what you see here. After all videos are just moving pictures and I tend to do those well.

Coit Tower

Peter Walkowiak — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 17:26:46 +0000

My last trip to San Francisco I said I would see things that I have not before. I told myself I would not shoot or drive across the Golden Gate Bridge, I did not. The night I ended up at the Coit Tower was the same night I was out shooting Lombard Street (previous post). I was supposed to take some photos of the city lit up at night, a mix of long exposures etc. Instead I parked and fell asleep in the parking lot near the tower…. fail.

A complete 180 degrees from the above image was this beautiful view:

I was quite amused with all the people in this area, they always make me smile. If you know the area you know what I am referring to

Ok well I may have photographed it from a distance, the Golden Gate Bridge can be seen on the right. At the top of the steep street in the center is Lombard Street.

An image of San Francisco’s Lombard Street like you have never seen it before You can see the Coit Tower in the distance as well as the Oakland Bay Bridge and St. Peter & Paul Church.

Image was taken at 11pm with the Nikon 24mm 2.8, this image is a combination of 4 exposures.
