An abandoned ship turned photo op on Tomales Bay in Northern California. After being abandoned by the owner, the ship became a magnet for photographers touring the area. Once in danger of being removed by wetlands restoration work, its popularity with visitors and photographers saved it. Unfortunately that same popularity almost destroyed it when one photographer's wool spinning experiment got out of hand, sparking a fire at the stern. Firefighters were able to stop the fire but the stern was completely destroyed. Today there is still a steady stream of visitors who stroll a short distance to snap a shot. I managed to capture it between visitor waves.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
You learn by doing. Take your next online photography class.
