Best places to photograph in the Bay Area? ?

• Where are some of the best places to photograph in the Bay Area? I'm looking to take photos in locations similar to these, optimally close to Los Altos Hills/Mountain View/Palo Alto: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3251/2830006166_ef1517b2f8.jpg (old building on waterfront) http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3176/2830005992_b5bd1c7470.jpg (abandoned swimming pool) http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3281/2829168745_08503dcf52.jpg (private sf pier) http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3014/2666418871_450c10bb78.jpg (construction sites) http://altonsunphoto.smugmug.com/photos/449980391_2SYKL-X3.jpg (abandoned factory with graffiti, sloppily stitched) Yes I did take all of the above photos, i'm looking for some more similar ones, and am happy to share my list if you share with me yours! Remember it doesn't necessarily have to be open to the public to enter a lot of the sites, I'll talk to some people and usually I can get in. Optimally, if you not only tell me, but show me some of yours, then we might be able to shoot together as well sometime! Thanks! ~Alton http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3233/2829170125_d4f15bcfbb.jpg (under ground graffiti)

• Answer:

  If you can make it to Cupertino tomorrow morning, there's the monthly flea market held at De Anza College...tons of people and vendors there, tons of stuff to shoot. I'm going myself. Walking up and down University Ave. in Palo Alto is also great for street photography, and the Foster City levee is a good place for sunrises (on the left side of the San Mateo Bridge, facing Hayward). A bit further north would be Sonoma County, haven't really gone there yet, but I heard it's beautiful.
