But be sure you have a solid tripod, because the breeze off the water is strong enough to shake your camera… especially if you're doing night photos of the city. Taking a panorama of this view is the only way to accurately describe the view to anyone who has never seen it. From the west side of the island, you will see a breathtaking view of the San Francisco Skyline (The Bay Bridge, Downtown SF, and the Golden Gate Bridge). This man-made island had a strong military influence at one time but is now being renovated to become a thriving residential area of San Francisco. To get an idea for photos in this area, turn on Panoramio in Google Maps to see a few photos show up – especially of the tree tunnel. The sunset hour along this coastal land is nothing short of spectacular once that warm light shows up on everything. Landscape photographers will find a little bit of heaven here and any portrait photographer will have a great time in the tree tunnel. The Monterey Cypress Tree Tunnel is a sight to see and the views from Mt. It might be the perfect excuse for some nice portraits.Įmpire Mine State Park is just 24 miles north of Auburn, CA, which is just northwest of Sacramento, CA. With a creative perspective and the right time of day, you could get a killer photo that represents the town well. There are several locations out of the mine that you might find rather interesting. Now owned by the California State Parks, this town has been preserved because of its historical beauty. This mining town was in operation until 1956.
Nevada City is about 30 miles north of Sacramento, CA. Nevada City would be a great place to do a set of portraits and use the city as a quiet, but very real, backdrop. There is the downtown area or the many rivers and streams running throughout to keep your interest. The old western and historic feel will give you some interesting things to photograph while you're here. Coming from anywhere in the United States, this will most certainly feel small to you. This is a small historic town with a population of about 3,000 people. The city is also known for its fishing and boating, as those are the main sources of Eureka's livelihood. One of the most famous buildings in town is the Carson Mansion. Many of the buildings have been restored to preserve the history of the area. It is the largest coastal city north of San Francisco. This town has a strong Victorian architectural influence throughout the city. This national forest is known for its extremely large trees – big enough for a car to drive through the trunk! If anything, it's a marvel and wonder to take in. One of the fans suggested that you start at the Northwest end of the park and work your way south. Remember: when going into the mountains to photograph, there are varying sunrise and sunset times because of the mountain ridges. Try to go to some of the other nearby lakes while you are up here and see what you can find to photograph.
There are a lot of great opportunities for some nice landscape photos, as well as some wholesome recreational fun.
In this area are several mountain ranges and lakes.
