Well maybe not just spotted.
Had the pleasure of spending the afternon with Skip & his wife Nina
yesterday. I gotta' say, Skip is as much a nut in person as he is here.
Met up with them in Oceanside, hung around there for a while, then headed South to Torrey Pines Gliderport
(via one exit too far and back-tracked through USCD - I knew where I was going - uh huh - I did really ) enjoyed the sunset from the cliffs, then made our way South through Ocean Beach and Pacific Beach.
A few shots from the day
in this GTG folder:
(P&S ^ in Skip's hands)
What? No shots of him laying on the ground?!? That's all I saw him do while hanging out at the DC GTG. :-) Sounds like you guys had a great day. Makes me long to be back in San Diego... until I think about the cost of living there and then I snap back to reality!! :-)
Love the photos Brad. Torrey Pines was always one of my favorite beaches to hang at while growing up. And I can't tell you how many nights were spent down in PB. Good times, good times indeed. Thanks for sharing. :-)
hats off to you, brad! ni and i had a blast hanging with you and dawn yesterday afternoon!
and i would say brad's every bit as gracious in person as he is here. i haven't had a chance to work through all i shot while out in SD, but i'd say his fingerprints--both from his where-to-go tips and some of the inspiring works in his portfolio--are all over the images i captured last week.
i just hope brad can do something about that bump on his nose...
note to shannon: you don't want to know what brad's using as an interior light for that car...
The trueth is he went there to take pics of Black Beach (nudist beach)below the glider port .... or was he a participant in the action? hummmm yup we need the hi res photo to see. Does anyone see his face on one of the guys on the beach??

fortunately, i can prove my whereabouts...
ken, this sign is at the edge of a cliff, about a 200' walk past a guardrail that says 'do not cross'. like you're going to pay attention to one sign if you ignore the other ;-)

Dude...the Shirt...the Stance...can you be anymore obvious or did Brad just set you up.
(Psst) There is a place just to your right over the side a little bit you could do this a little more descretely... :)

Well I originally thought the picture on the sign should be changed, but now I think the words on the sign should be changed to match the picture...
OK Skip, you just had to go and spoil me didn't you.
I took a look at one of the test shots I did with your 70-200mm f/2.8L IS,
then did a 100% crop of a section of it just for shits & giggles.
Holy Crap!

I gotta' have me one of those!
hahhahha! i thought you'd like it ;-) it's amazing what turns up in the image that you don't necessarily see through the lens. i almost sprayed my keyboard when i zoomed in on those volleyball players the first time!!
Dang! I was sure I left that Speedlight on the plane. Seriously though, that car has a light?
imagine trakking that thing 70+ on the interstate, chasing a sunset. all of a sudden, nina exclaims, 'what the hell is going on up there?!?!'... i look up, and it looks like fireworks are going off in the car. turns out it was just brad, poppin the strobe, looking for the lid to his coffee mug ;-)
whoa...on a more serious note...Watching the news this morning they picked the body of an older man off the beach yesterday afternoon from very near to this spot. Aparently he got a little close to edge and fell to his untimely dimise. He had a full bag of camera equipment. Just be careful when faced these kinds of warnings.
