Moonlight Symphony ( 月光交響曲 )

Strawberry Moonrise over Golden Gate Bridge on 6/10/2017. San Francisco, CA.

The moon aligned with the North tower the night before. But it got even closer on this night, offering us this very rare view of a full moon sitting just above the tower without overlapping, as seen from the only spot where Transamerica building also aligns!

While the moon goes above the Golden Gate Bridge occasionally at various heights, there are only a few times in a decade to see a full moon get this close! I have waited 4 years for this unique view and I am glad that I was there to see it this time!

It will be 2021 for the moon to get to this position again!!!

Berry Veil

Portion of Berry Creek Falls. Big Basin, CA.

It requires quite a bit of work to see this fall as this waterfall is situated in the middle of a 10.5-mile loop trail. While the fall is beautiful and all, I wonder if I would ever exert that much effort again to see a waterfall! :-) Hope you enjoy this view as much as I did!

Until next time...

Under the Maple Canopy ( 秋意濃 )

Japanese Maple Tree in Autumn. Portland, OR.

This is perhaps the most photographed tree in Portland! After shooting the "classic" composition, I moved around and this view caught my attention! To accentuate the tree, I shot this using wide aperture to make the surrounding maple leaves out-of-focus and used it to frame my subject.

Wizard Hat ( 巫師帽 )

Milky Way Core Aligns with Martin Beach Sea Stack. Half Moon Bay, CA.

The shape of this sea stack reminded me of Harry Potter movie! On certain month in the year, the milky way core aligns with this rock structure, making it looked like a wizard hat casting magic spells to the sky!

Sand Towers ( 沙塵塔 )

Sand Tufas in Mono Lake. Mono County, CA.

Mono Lake is known for its unique rock formation along its shores. But this bunch of sand tufas that is farther inland attracted me the most due to its delicate state yet rigid appearance. These tufas that were formed underwater and now exposed after the lake water receeded had created such unique formation that is pretty and artsy in its own way.

Allure

Abiqua Falls in Autumn. Scotts Mills, OR.

A near hundred-foot waterfall that is surrounded by basaltic amphitheater, Abiqua Falls is certainly a spectacular sight to behold!

On my recent trip to Portland, I finally made a "mini-adventure" to visit this secluded spot. While not hard to find, it was quite a bit of hassle to get to! It rained the days prior to my visit and actually had light shower during my hike down, making the already very steep trail muddy and felt more slippery. But seeing this unique view was well worth all the effort and more! My only regret was not able to stay here longer as the rain started pouring again soon after I took this shot. I came home happy nonetheless knowing I had checked off yet another item on my photography's bucket list!

Hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

New Website!

After YEARS of using this blog as my main site to showcase my photos, I have finally decided to host my own photography website which I had done for quite some time back! Check it out if you have a moment! It is at: https://www.wilsonngphotography.com

Going forward, I will try to include more stories about my photo trips on this blog aside from the usual photo posts that I had been doing, so don't "unfollow" me here just yet! LOL! Anyway, let me know what you think of my website or if you encounter any issues using it. The image below is a partial screenshot of my website! Thank you for your support!
