Wonderful shots Doug,

and marvelous morning light too

Looks like an expert had set up the lighting - the sharp sand area around the feet is, gorgeous.

Makes me wonder why they never thought of setting up motion picture studios round there.

Tuesday morning I made a quick trip to the San Francisco area and found
that I had extra time right around sunrise, so I visited South Shore beach
in Alameda (across the bay from SF) where I found a few shorebirds:

Black-bellied Plover, still in winter plumage:

Technical stuff:

the usual R8/DMR, 560, shoulder stock & monopod, UET-R extension tube.  I
was on my knees in the sand, about as low as I was willing to take my
camera, in order to get a somewhat eye-level perspective.

All comments welcome.
