Day 14: January 14, 2014: South San Francisco Bay

A little bit of sunset action today from the scenic corporate campus.  With some time to kill between experiments, I stumbled upon a sunset, low tide, and full moon, all at the same time!  What does it mean‽

This area is interesting, and these photos have me thinking about it’s history.  A former industrial area before being overcome by the biotech boom, some of the past begins to emerge at low tide.  Wandering through the mud this day, I came upon a series of concrete structures that are typically submerged.  My guess is some sort of former pier, based on the orderly rows, but I could be completely wrong.  From what I’ve been told, this particular spot used to be the home of a paint factory.  Could these structures be related to that, or do they predate even this former purpose?  How many times has this land changed purpose before it ended up as a biotech campus today?  So many changes, so much history.  Thoughts and wonders: I has many.

The pinks of the sunset sure were pretty, though.

In other news: I have a photo in the upcoming “Home” Exhibition at Dickerman Prints in San Francisco.  The show runs March 22-April 10, with an opening reception tomorrow from 6:30-8 PM.  I’ll be there tomorrow, so come on down and stop by!
