Last night, photostar Bob Horowitz snapped the amazing photo you see above. It was a clear night in Bernal, but when Bob looked downtown from Bernal Heights Boulevard, he saw that the skyscrapers were shrouded in a thin layer of spooky fog that covered the ground like a whispy blanket.
I know this because I happened to drive down Bernal Heights Boulevard just a few hours later, and the spectacle impressed me so much that I also stopped to take a few photos of my own:
But the funny thing is… I didn’t know that Bob had captured a similar shot; it was only after I got home and took a peek inside the Bernalwood Flickr group that I noticed we’d both been beguiled by the same phenomenon. Great minds, blah blah blah…

Great shots. I enjoyed the view on the way home from Bernal yoga. The south side of the hill was completely socked in, but the north side was clear. Very cool.
Yup, the Allemany Interchange was totally socked in, but Twin Peaks blocked to fog from hitting Noe Valley, the Castro, and the Mission. In fact, there was very little wind up on Bernal Heights last night. And nobody up there at 9pm. It was very quiet.
Great shots, Todd. We need to go shooting together.
Anytime, Bob! Any ol’ time! Thanks for sharing your snaps.
Beautiful work, gentlemen.
Wrenching puts me in the mood…
I made a mental note of how neat this phenomenon was this morning as the sun and I was driving down Prospect towards Coso/Stoneman. Quite awesome looking! (I was far too lazy at that hour to take a photo.) Sure stuck around for a long time, as fog goes.
