This is Dawlish seafront under repair after the storm of 2014, Network Rail are still here ! The barge top right is one hell of a bit of kit and its said to have saved £6million on the repairs .

Absolutely fantastic photos, @Dougie D! I love San Francisco. Some years ago I lived in Oakland and worked in Berkeley and still have very fond memories of The Bay Area. It has been far too long since I've been there and your photos made me realize it's high time to start planning to go back. Hope you had a terrific trip!

 

Love the photos @Dougie D, especially the sea mist over Golden Gate, the mist had burnt off by the time we got there (see my earlier post #733 pg37). And got some just like your other photos, I wonder how many millions of times those scenes have been photographed in our digital age.
So....I never got round to finishing the series I was posting from our West Coast tour, now you've prompted me to finish off with the last few SanFran shots before we flew home.








The spiral escalators fascinated my engineering brain.

 

So that was our second US trip back in 2014, our first was some 15 years earlier when we "did" Big Sur, Monterey, Yosemite, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, San Francisco.
But back then I was still on film cameras, has anybody experience/recommendations for digitising old 35mm (and/or APS) colour and monochrome negatives?
I have an oldish Epson V350 scanner but results were poor and horrendously slow.

 

It was somewhere in 1996 I believe when I visited San-Francisco as a kid. I would love to go back one day! Lovely pictures!
