For decades #film photographers strived for more sharpness and finer grain and now that we have near perfection via digital, it's sometimes so sharp my eyes hurt. So I'm really liking this old Russian glass w/ my Fuji #xseries. Found this bike parked along the Calaveras last evening. . . . . . #goldenhourproject #stocktonCA #centralvalley #visitcalifornia #wonderfullifephoto #stocktonphotographer #centralcreatives #instagood #picoftheday #instamood #instadaily #bestoftheday #artofvisuals #downtown #lifeofadventure #welltravelled #instatravel #adventuretravel #adventure #bicycle #picnic #xpro2 #jupiter8 (at Stockton, California)

When you wake up to fog, you gotta go out and shoot. In this case the eerie grounds of my friend Jim's former residence just off The Miracle Mile. In fog, it feels like the Headless Horseman is going to gallop through at any moment. :-) . . . . #goldenhourproject #stocktonCA #visitstockton #visitcentralvalley #centralvalley #visitcalifornia #sombre #wonderfullifephoto #stocktonphotographer #centralcreatives #instagood #picoftheday #instamood #instadaily #bestoftheday #artofvisuals #lifeofadventure #welltravelled #instatravel #adventuretravel #adventure #sombresociety #moodygrams #urbex #nikon (at Stockton, California)

Fall brings old friends back.

From normal distances these roadside thistles all look gold. But when you slow down and take time to examine them, you discover that they have subtly beautiful shades. Lovely. . . . . . goldenhourproject #stocktonCA #visitstockton #visitcentralvalley #centralvalley #visitcalifornia #nature #wonderfullifephoto #stocktonphotographer #centralcreatives #instagood #picoftheday #instamood #instadaily #bestoftheday #artofvisuals #nikon #lifeofadventure #welltravelled #instatravel #adventuretravel #adventure #nikond610 #nikonphotography (at Stockton, California)

Yep, no doubt about it—Fall is here.

The abandoned Beaver Union Elementary School in Ryde, just after its new owners took it over (that's where the flag came from). Now known as The Grand Island Mission, this mission-styled three-room building is in the process of being restored. Two years ago, we raised about $120k in three months to finance the shoring of its 90 year old roof. Now, we're getting set to restore the rest of it. Love this place though it can be a little spooky when you're in there alone. . . #goldenhourproject #stocktonCA #visitstockton #visitcentralvalley #centralvalley #visitcalifornia #downtownstockton #wonderfullifephoto #stocktonphotographer #centralcreatives #instagood #picoftheday #instamood #instadaily #bestoftheday #artofvisuals #downtown #lifeofadventure #welltravelled #instatravel #adventuretravel #adventure #urbex #sombre (at The Grand Island Mission project)
