Ben Wiggins features stunning time-lapse photography. From the strange colorings of the Cnidarian and Montipora coral species, to summer cloud transformations in and around San Francisco. Couldn't make it to Burning Man 2009? See it... in just two minutes (2008, 2007).

But some do not climb; and below, the earth is littered with them.

"I photograph people who skirt the edges of things; people whose connection to the broader flow is murky or obscured. Mistaken as more, less or different than they are; they aren’t really seen and don’t really belong. That’s everyone sometimes; but some more often. I try to establish a line for a moment. I hope to connect. And I see the most beautiful and the most heartbreaking things."

Daily photos from the SF Bay Area

So you'd like to see daily photographs taken in San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area? You can start with What I'm Seeing and supplement your viewing with the following sites. Fogbay's excellence is only hampered by its lack of an RSS feed, although it does categorize its posts via a handy map. Both Valerie J. Cochran's Your Waitress and Manuel Guerzoni's San Francisco Daily Photography tend to focus on urban scenes. Donald Kimmel's A Photo a Day features mostly, though not exclusively, landscapes and the North bay. Frederic Larson has a photojournalist's eye. Photography per se is not its focus, but Vélo Vogue provides near-daily updates on the fashions of local bicyclists. And finally, as a one-time bonus, here is an excellent set of photos taken at a long-abandoned swimming pool, now taken over by squatters.

I MUST go see this exhibit in San Francisco. If I had to choose my favorite artistic medium, and the greatest practitioner of that medium, it would be the amazing black and white landscape photos by Ansel Adams.
