This is my second roll of film developed in quarantine. These past few months have been filled with strange times that feel like they keep getting stranger. One of the things that has kept me calm and has been a great release has been continuing to wander around the city in the quiet hours of the day. Waking up early in the morning to bike or wander around the city with no real goal other than getting out of the house and breathing fresh air. These are some subdued scenes from the past few months.

Mount Tam Hike above San Francisco
My cousin Tyler and I went up to Mount Tam the other weekend, one of the highest points in the Bay Area. From the top, you can see San Francisco in its entirety, Oakland and Berkley. In addition to seeing the Golden Gate Bridge, Pacific Ocean and the Bay. The views are unbelievably gorgeous, especially on a clear day, so we set out to go to the top.
We made our way up to Mount Tam by driving across the Golden Gate Bridge, which never gets old. Every single time I look at it or drive across it feels like the first time. Just seeing the immense gates being tethered by the thick crimson strings makes me truly love being in San Francisco and California.

If you look outside, you’ll see they crisp blue bay being sprinkled with stark white sail boats. Once you pass over the bridge you must go through Robin Williams Tunnel, which is a tunnel through a mountain marked by a rainbow on the front, then your eyes are opened to the wonders of Sausalito and Marin marked by all the marina’s and million dollar homes on cliff sides.
We take the exit for Muir Woods and make our ascension up through the groves of eucalyptus and redwood trees to Mount Tam. It is a very windy road were the tall, gangly trees tower over the roadway. Once you get out of the groves, you see the scenery open like book showing you all the grand ocean, hills and forests. We round the curve to start our windy road to the base of Mount Tam and continue up the unbelievably windy roads, if you look at the roads from the sky they must look like a river delta on the side of a mountain. We wind our way to the very top and finally park our car, take our all our camera gear and start hiking. It was an unnaturally clear day, we were standing on the cliffs edge breathing in all the fresh ocean and mountain air.
