. I love making movies and composing music.
About the movie: I persuaded a friend on the East Coast to send me a recording of her singing God Bless America with no instrumental back up. I chopped the audio up and put it to my own composition. I put the song together with video I shot around Montara and this is the result.

July 4th, and once again there are fireworks at the harbor!
Elizabeth, my daughter, made these images (the one above and the eighty-seven others in the Photo Album--see links below) and she would like to share them with you.
Soon, we'll have video of the fireworks and perhaps a few composite photos. Stay tuned.

On Sunday, my family and I went for a walk on Montara Mountain. On the way down my Mom spotted what looked like a miniature, rainbow-colored sun! My Dad identified it as a Sun Dog. As I looked closer at it I saw that there was a white, cloudy ball at the center. As we moved on I tried to keep track of both the Sun Dog and the Sun as we moved into a patch of trees. When we came out of the woods the Sun Dog had faded and all that was left were several bright wisps of cloud.
After we returned home I looked on the Internet and learned that Sun dogs are formed by the Sun being reflected off ice crystals, water, fog or mist in the air. They most commonly occur at sunset or sunrise. A good web page to learn more is at Wonderquest.
