Though take care… when you’re staggering around in the dark, the vegetation really is as spiky as it looks!

San Francisco was a joy to photograph, nowhere more so than the wonderful Golden Gate Bridge.

After picking-up where I left off on the Californian border last year, I continued my journey down Route 66, travelling through the Mojave desert and finally found myself at the end of the road in Santa Monica.

Santa Monica marks the end of the 2448 miles of the original Mother Road from Chicago to LA. Having driven along all the remaining road surface, there was a certain melancholy on reaching the Pacific.
