San Francisco Trip with Olympus Visionaries and Super Fans...

Once every year, the Olympus Corporation gathers all of the Visionaries on the American Visionary Team for a Summit. This year we had the opportunity to have a San Francisco trip with the Olympus Visionaries and Olympus Super Fans! What an amazing weekend! Surrounded by some of my favorite people and epic photographers, we stormed San Fran and visited such amazing places as Alcatraz Island, Land's End, Fisherman's Wharf, The Mission District, Graffiti Alley and the Golden Gate Bridge. 

The following is a collection of images that I took documenting a bit about the trip and the wonderful people who made it so amazing. A huge thanks to Olympus, my fellow Visionaries, the Mullen team, and all of the Superfans for such an epic time!!!

The birds of Alcatraz

Laura photographing Macro

Reba grabbing her landscape shots off of Alcatraz

The beautiful sailboats in the bay around Alcatraz Island

Lots of rusty barbed wire and broken windows along with buildings in ruins made Alcatraz extra woeful even on a beautiful day!

Peter making his magical images off the island

Austin finding interesting angles for a few shots

The beautiful broken windows of Alcatraz inspired all of us!!

The eye of Alcatraz

Austin grabbing video through the panes

All the lines...had to shoot it

Such a poser! Sat still through all of us getting super close to him.

Mike and Laura about 1/2 way up to the prison! What a hike!

Laura on Alcatraz...yes, they let her off the island..haha!

Jeff found a cool spot to shoot from inside the building that held Al Capone's cell.

One of my favorite grungy images from inside the prison at Alcatraz. I keep wondering what these little doors were for...?
