SF (my day was not so clear) all over. TI is good too
Santa Teresa park in San Jose
PCH almost anywhere
On the freeway! I love action shots
Random vineyards all around the bay

Thanks guys,
I am not a photographer but I play one on the web
Sometimes you find stuff in your back yard, like the Santa Teresa shots are four blocks from my house, sometimes you find them far away. Just keep your eyes open. I was just in San Francisco on Sunday and already I have a new map of places to go for pictures. I got to get new rims first though, I just cant take five more virtual rolls of film of those stockers.

By the way there are poles in front of the Legion of Honor. There is also a large fountain just opposite where I am parked and that would also make a nice backdrop.

Still my favorites are the action shots like this one in Bodega Bay

or this

We were hitting some of the back roads in Marin County as well as along Hwy 1. I think this is somewhere around Mt. Tamalpais.
