16 Aug 2026 Themes Shadows, Silhouettes, “Fishing”: Jim

Jim – Jim photographed one of his favorite north county location – Mission San Luis Rey. Here, he found some classic columned walkways. At the Mission’s fountain, he “fished” for the image of the black bird stopping for a drink. The other images, silhouetted & shadowed, were from a recent trip to the beach during the heat wave. His grandson, the “fish”, finally exiting the surf silhouetted. The fencing around a beach rehabilitation area made great shadows late in the afternoon.
Bird photos that were overlooked from an earlier trip this year to Sonny Bono Salton Sea Reserve that fit the silhouette theme were “processed” and shared.
The silhouettes of people watching sunset at Zabriskie Point, color & b&w, was an iphone image from Jan this year.
His Safari Park photos were segways into a discussion about future meet-up possibilities. Since the weather has cooled, photography outings such as Safari Park are doable.
