Great pics! Looks like you are getting a fair amount of vignetting though.

Should be able to get some good shots of kites down on the water and wipeouts, which I will probably be among.

Better start doing your wind dances, b/c it is heading in weird direction right now for Alameda.

Ken - btw, HUNWIL is not my alias :)

These past few days have been somewhat atypical. I work in Oakland and look straight at the flag atop the Trib building. Normally it is blowing from due Westerlies, but it has been blowing from the S most of the day, and right now it is blowing from the E. Usually not a good sign for Alameda.
