San Diego City Skyline at Dawn

Each year I reshoot views of the San Diego City Skyline to keep them current and to improve on what I have shot in the past. These two views are from a couple of my favorite locations, at dawn rather than the more common sunset timing. In one, a cruise ship…

Downtown San Diego viewed from Point Loma. A storm system passed through Southern California last weekend dumping rain, hail and snow. However, the sun was able to peek through the clouds for a moment at sunset, lighting up the San Diego skyline while the surrounding harbor and mountains in the…

San Diego Skyline Photo

Photos of the San Diego downtown city skyline. San Diego likes to boast that it is America's Finest City. Perhaps -- at least the notion is debatable. However, San Diego does have a beautiful downtown waterfront and city skyline. A few places to admire the lineup of hotels and buildings…
