Photography is an accidental art, more than any other form. Either being in the right place at the right time; or seeing a color, shape, or angle that is pleasing. We see the world as reflected light and we process those images through our perception of what we think we are seeing.
Here are images in the morning in sonoma county.

Some days I see the world in black and white.
I am still a big fan of black and white photography. The impression one is left with can change completely with or without color. Like so many other photographers I spent many an hour in the darkroom once upon a time.
The America’s Cup continues to attract a great deal of negative press. From my point of view it is deserved. However, once the final act is finished everyone will forget the bad and be filled with the results; the winner and loser. I only hope that San Francisco is not one of the losers.
I have always had an affinity for black and white photography. Color can get in the way of seeing what is there.
