San Fransisco


I was just in San Fransisco for a lighting fast trip. I was there for a meeting with the agency's CMS fiscal intermediary which was not a lot of fun but had to be done. The meeting was boring but my plane did not leave until late the next day which gave me a little bit of time to wander around and see some of the sights. I was on foot in the Fisherman's Wharf area. Very touristy but also very photogenic. I did not take the DSLR but had the Olympus p&s. I had forgotten how tough it was to work with the shutter lag and as a result lost some shots but I do have one or two that I think may be worth the effort.

While I was out in the early morning - long before most tourists would be out and about I ran into the baker who works in the Cannery Row Bakery. He had just finished the morning baking and had set up a basket on the counter displaying the various rolls that are avaialble. The shot through the door came out rather nicly for a P&S camera. The lighting was a challenge so I metered for the bright napkin and then recomposed the shot. All in all I was pleased with the results.
