We just got back from our trip to San Diego. We toured both the Zoo and the Safari Park as well as some of the other sights in San Diego County. Many, many shots to come.

This set is composed of our walk along the harbor area before getting into the car to drive throughout the county.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

P.S. Most of the county shots I will post are with my new Sony FE 14mm, f/1.8.

Mike looks like a trip well spent.

I love San Diego I used to visit a lot when my son lived there. I would ride the train and make a weekend trip.

Nice pics! I like the perspectives and the point of views.

But .. that famous kiss was taken shortly after WWII, just after VJ Day.

Nice set Mike. When he let her go she slapped him and walked away--True story

Thanks, Frank, this is just a fraction of what I shot. Time to get to processing.

Thanks, it was our first visit and we loved it. You are correct and I have a typo issue.

Nice shots. That aircraft carrier is one large ship. I'm glad you enjoyed your trip.

Thanks, Mike, by today's standards it is not so big, but it was big to me.

Beautifully done, Mike. The ships were the perfect subjects for your 14mm. Great detail in the downloads.

Thanks, Joe, I wanted something to cut down on the number of panos.
