Things that Fly and Dip

Things I saw walking around by the beach this weekend.

 

Full Moon set in Half Moon Bay

 Pre Surf full moon set in Half Moon Bay. Didn't surf here because the surf wasn't great but it was pretty.

Outer Sunset Sunset

 

After 21 years...

...of seeing Sutro Tower out of our front window and using it as a line up while surfing Ocean Beach I decided it was time to walk there.

The view from the front window.

A drone shot showing the Outer Sunset section of the walk. We are 1/2 block from the beach just behind the first row of houses. It was a 9 mile round trip.

2 miles in was the steepest section with two sections of steps like this.

It was fun to stand near the base for the first time.

And in 3D!

I took a break once there to have a snack, some water, and to do a quick sketch.

I kind of like this "Dutched" composition a little more than the straight on images.

A picture from Halloween a few days before. It was egging me on.
 

Still pretty photogenic

 C/2023 A3 is still up and on the edge of naked eye visible. With the moon coming up a little later it is still pretty photogenic.
