Time-lapse Photography: Marin County Fog

This is what it's like to live in Marin County most of the year. And I've shot so much of the fog as still images, that I almost grew bored with it and stopped going to the top of the mountain.

Saved by a new appreciation for time-lapse photography, I returned to the top of Mt. Tamalpais one afternoon to shoot this nice sequence.

Once again, I decided to use ancient music I recorded of myself back in early college days (1980) as the soundtrack. I play everything but the drums, which were done by my old friend Terry Libby. I'd like to find him again someday.

Much as I like this video, it's a tad long at 3 minutes. I should have shaved 30 seconds and ended just after the sunset sequence. But, I wanted to finish the song....

A great piece of work for one of my favorite areas too....and fog, it's beautiful to see, just as long as it's not surrounding you for too long a time.

I grew up in Mill valley, went to Marin Academy....it was always warmer in San Rafael. Mill Valley really got the fog. It looks like a river in this movie. Redwoods thrive on it!
