Tides on the San Diego Bay

Yesterday morning our weather had a hint of fall. It was slightly cooler, we had a breeze, and there were billowing clouds.

I went over to the San Diego Bay thinking conditions would be good for seeing the different textures that the tide makes as it flows in the harbor. I like how there is an under color that differs by it’s location and flow, and how the waves’s shadows are aligned in patterns.

Most of this was painted on the spot but I did not have enough courage to do the birds there. Instead I came home and used my photos since I was uncertain of what the gulls really look like when flying.
