Description
ONE OF MY SOLD IMAGES ON FAA
In this classic scene of San Francisco Bay, a sailboat passes by with its sails beautifully unfurled as its unidentifiable sailor looks toward the skyline of San Francisco, California, USA.
San Francisco Bay is a mecca for sailors (boats, as well as windsurfing and kitesurfing), due to consistent strong westerly/northwesterly thermally-generated winds of 15-25 knots, common on summer afternoons, and protection from large open ocean swells. Yachting and yacht racing are popular pastimes, and the San Francisco Bay Area is home to many of the world's top sailors.

Thank you, Frank Casella, for the lovely feature in Compact Digital Camera Photographers. This Canon A630 was a great little "trip camera." It was all I could afford at the time, but many (if not most) of my sales so far were shot with this gem.
