   It is a good thing that the Bay of San Fransisco was preserved for an extra 200 years.

   This one is heavenly! I should love to sit there a long while and meditate (think and reflet is what I really mean). The fog that hides the outline of the land helps to create a sense of mystery and mysticism. As much as a clear day showing an endless sea can symbolyse possibilities, the foggy horizon represents uncertainty and mysteries to solve. Any of these states are present in life, therefore, one can appreciate both meteorological conditions. Each can feed our imagination in a different way. That is what I expect of moments in nature.

   A most beautiful capture!

   how fast would i have to be running, to take a leap from the edge, and land in the water?
   …..or on the back of an elephant seal?

   I’m with zenera. Soaring down and making a graceful flare at the bottom would be most invigorating. Elsenet, I have the signature, "If only I could fly on my own wings." Twould be a great thing.

   Beautiful colors here, Steve. You sure you didn’t accidently cross the ocean and end up in Hawaii for this shot?

   Leino: you’d want to untether your wings…. =)

   I had not noticed this in iPhoto before (which automatically resizes the photo), but when I look at the original size, there are a bunch of birds in the water already. When the flotilla from the earlier photo arrived, it became quite a bird bath.
