Natural Bridge, Virginia

Image
So, this post isn't a re-upload like the previous posts. These photos are from my most  recent  excursion; I visited Natural Bridge yesterday on the 15th. This 200-foot tall Natural Bridge is inside a limestone gorge.            The "Eye" of the Natural Bridge.     The other side of the Natural Bridge. They have several benches    A better view of the other side of the bridge.     One of my biggest gripes about the Polaroid Flip is when you wake it up, the flash automatically comes on. I have to turn it off every time. It's frustrating because it's easy to forget. I was trying to take a picture of the mine and I realized after I took the photo, the flash was on.      I am genuinely surprised I was able to capture a clear, perfectly exposed shot of this cave. I had the flash on as well. It was very shady where I was standing. There really wasn't much light behind me when I shot this.    Th...

Golden Gate Bridge - San Fransisco

Image
The Golden Gate Bridge was one of my last excursions on my last day in San Fransisco. It just felt poetic to save the very best for last. Unfortunately, it was extremely cloudy and foggy. The pictures still turned great. I love the ambience they give off. Instead of doubling or tripling my photos together, I decided to let leave them as singles.   This photo was my starting point. I walked the entire length of the bridge. It was a fun experience but man was the wind brutal.        This was the other side.     There's an old seacoast fort under the bridge's southern side,  Fort Point National Historic Site.    You can go inside Fort Point. Shot this photo from the roof. I was trying to get some of the Golden Gate in the photo.  I visited Muir Woods before walking the Golden Gate Bridge. This was the only photo I was able to salvage. I took a risk with pictures. Surprise, surprise, they all came our underexposed. This was th...

San Fransisco

Image
Some images from my April 2024 vacation in San Fransisco. That was my very first time out west. These photos were shot using my Polaroid 600. It was almost my first time using a Polaroid camera so these pictures aren't the very best. If you look at these photos and the ones from my other posts, you can see a vast improvement. Analog cameras are always a challenge at times. These photos were uploaded using the "Scan" features in iPhone's notes. The real photos aren't this overexposed.   (Left photo) I took this photo of the cityscape from the Alcatraz boat while we were boarding. (Middle Photo) I took this when I reached Alcatraz Island.   (Right Photo) A plaza in the Fisherman's Warf area. I took these on the stairs headed up to Coit Tower.        Here's the actual Polaroid of the plaza. The scan feature doesn't do the real photos any justice.                My hotel was right beside Chinatown. The left phot...
