Last night my friend John and I went to a shoot sponsored by the Nocturnes on Mare Island. We had a great time and at least understand the basics of long exposure nighttime photography. It’s a very different experience given 4-8 minute exposures.

This is perhaps my favorite shot of the night. It was a six minute exposure.

I really was attracted to the concentric nature of the outer petals.

Camellias are beginning to flower around here and they have many, many forms. I found three today. All of them were very different from each other.

While walking in a light rain up at The Sea Ranch on the Monarch Trail we spotted this trio of tiny mushrooms growing out of the side of a massive fence post. Try as I might to get enough depth of field (f32!) I had to settle for almost. See the second photo for scale.

On another pre dawn walk, I noticed this illuminated pot. I’m not at all sure why it’s illuminated ….

Things that are ordinary can look different (extraordinary?) in the dark. I pass this place nearly every day and only today “saw” this.

How does it adhere?
