We moved here for the proximity to nature. I'm so thankful that we have views like this so close by. I hope we never have to move away from the bay, if we do I'll be going kicking and screaming. Since I'm still relatively new, I'd love to hear about where you like to hike, bike, and just generally get out to see nature and wildlife.
Six months ago, I moved here from NYC, where seeing stars over an iconic landmark essentially requires a citywide blackout. I used to have to drive several hours each way just to escape the light pollution. Now, being able to hop on my bike and ride 20 minutes to a sky like this is something I will never take for granted. Dodging the light trails from passing boats and planes took some patience, but waiting for this shot was worth every second.
I am so thankful there is so much beauty in this city and nearby. Its inspired me to go out and photograph nearly every day.
