| This photo was somewhat difficult to accomplish. The blossom was quite a ways away, and I photographed it with my 400mm Nikkor. The bright morning sun posed a problem because of shadows. I hope you enjoy it. Please share my blog with friends and family, or any of my commercial sites, listed on this blog. Word-of-mouth advertising is basically my only form of advertising. Thank you for visiting. © GTFS. |

Because screen resolutions are becoming better, along with photo-editing software, I've been re-editing some of my photos to ensure they are best suited for the precise contemporary viewing standards, including on big-screen TVs.
This is a Porcelain dahlia photographed in San Francisco at The Dahlia Garden in Golden Gate Park. Please share, if so inclined. © GTFS.

Big Sur Coast Overrated; McWay Cove Remains Spectacular
 |
| McWay Cove and Waterfall on the Big Sur Coast of California. Much of the coastline and inland is charred and burned by many fires. This is one of the few highlights for me along the denuded coast. Far superior is the Southern Oregon Coast, Mendocino Coast, and North Coast. Big Sur is far, far, far overrated. Photo by Glenn Franco Simmons. © Glenn Franco Simmons. |
