The life of any city is endlessly complex and interesting. The colors one encounters reflect this truth.
Early in the morning I walked around downtown San Diego–primarily through Little Italy and the Columbia District. Then in the evening I walked down Broadway.
My camera found these colors…

The light early this morning was magical.
A few minutes after sunrise, I walked from the top of Cortez Hill south into the heart of downtown San Diego.
Many of these photographs were taken as I turned my camera west. Look at all the golden reflections!

Please enjoy some downtown San Diego photos taken this evening.
After sunset I walked east from the Broadway Pier. Strolling slowly along the sidewalk, I gazed up at the changing light on tall glassy buildings.
When I reached Fourth Avenue, I turned back west and took a final photograph down Broadway.

Please enjoy these photographs of winter beauty by the San Diego River in Mission Valley.
I framed this natural beauty during several January morning walks. Some photos were taken from the pedestrian bridge that spans the river by the Fashion Valley Transit Center; others near Mission Center Road.
Reflections created magic. White clouds in the sky floated on water. Trees were turned upside down.
Branches, leaves, river and sky danced together mysteriously.

Everything you can imagine is real–on Kettner Boulevard.
This morning I saw this long mural across the street from the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego. Looking up, I discovered window washers on a downtown building. They appeared to be suspended in a maze of reflecting mirrors.
I imagined eyes looking down from places behind the mirrors, searching the streets of reality below…imagining–

But can everything that is real be imagined?
Incidentally, the mural’s quote is by Picasso. The words, many colors and geometric fragments were painted by @StefanieBalesFineArt.

Early sunlight made a walk along San Diego’s Embarcadero very beautiful this morning.
I snapped these photos between the Grape Street Pier and Broadway Pier.
Gentle ripples moved across quiet San Diego Bay. Golden light reflected from buildings and homes across the water. Birds passed overhead. A ferry departed for Coronado.
Here’s what morning walkers and joggers might have experienced…

One more blog post this evening, then I’ll give it a rest.
These photographs were taken in Mission Valley by the San Diego River right after sunset. Pinks, blues and oranges lingered in sky and water…

After I got off from work today, a little before sunset, the sky above Mission Valley was full of dramatic clouds. The weather has been unsettled lately.
As I walked past two tall glassy buildings, dark gray and bright white cumulus clouds in a blue sky were mirrored in the windows…

As I started my day at the top of Cortez Hill, I was greeted by magical morning light reflected from downtown buildings to the west and south.
Then I saw the rainbow!

Call me crazy, but I never tire of taking photographs of downtown San Diego right after sunrise. The early light and the reflections are truly magical!
These shining images were captured during my walk to catch the trolley yesterday morning.
