A Message From The Walk Leader
Hello everybody! Come join the crew of Peachpit Press as we photowalk in and around China Camp State Park in Marin. Our walk will begin at 5:30 PM at the Chinese Fishing Village. After shooting around the village we will head out for a short walk in the park so we can set up to capture what I am sure will be a fantastic sunset.
What is there to shoot? Well, to start off there is the Chinese shrimp-fishing village that has thrived on this site since the 1880s. That means lots of cool old artifacts, fishing boats, a pier and much more. Then as we head out into the part we will be surrounded by the beauty of Northern California: live oaks, lovely meadows, beautiful salt marshes, the San Pablo Bay and, I am sure, a critter or two.
Bring a snack and a beverage (an adult one if you desire; I know we will) so we can chat after the shoot. Looking forward to seeing you there. We may even bring a few books to give away. You never know!

Four miles east of San Rafael on the shore of San Pablo Bay. From Highway 101, go east on North San Pedro Road for five miles until it enters the park. Latitude/Longitude: 38.0144 / -122.4600

What a fun day this was! Beautiful warm light especially as the day progressed. The walk to the beach was awesome and yielded many beautiful images. The shrimping village was fun with so many interesting things to discover and shoot. Thanks for a very nice PhotoWalk!
