Awesome. View photos and full project at GothamCitySF.com.

This idea came from the aether; it emerged over time. Several years ago (2012) while exploring my passion for black and white photography I found myself wandering into a look I call ‘Gotham’. I have a passion for timelapse as well, so it wasn’t long before the two processes started to merge in my mind, and the concept for Gotham City SF was born!

Over the intervening years I have collected and edited this footage while juggling my freelance career and time working at Lytro (a new camera technology). This film means a lot to me. It is one of the biggest personal projects I’ve ever worked on. I searched for music for months. Finally deciding to work with James Everingham: a talented 14 year old from the UK. (Now 16) He ended up composing a full custom composition and it came out perfect! See more of my work: http://tobyharriman.com http://500px.com/tobyharriman

A Time Lapse Collection http://mitchmckenna.com/post/14422/a-time-lapse-collection

This city, damn.

Over the past few years I’ve collected a lot of time lapse and loved sharing it with you through my films “The Unseen Sea” and “Adrift”. “A Time Lapse Collection” is a medley of some of my favorite shots that didn’t make their way into either film. All of the footage was gathered on countless excursions into the Marin Headlands, the Berkeley Hills and a more recent trip to Dubai. While my two previous films focused more on the interaction of the fog, “A Time Lapse Collection” includes fast paced urban footage from San Francisco and Dubai. Lastly, I wanted to share some of the beautiful sunsets I’d captured, lighting up clouds in a vivid explosion of color. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did while shooting.

Adrift http://mitchmckenna.com/post/13135/adrift

This is where I live, amazing.

"Adrift" is a love letter to the fog of the San Francisco Bay Area. I chased it for over two years to capture the magical interaction between the soft mist, the ridges of the California coast and the iconic Golden Gate Bridge. This is where “Adrift” was born.

San Francisco Time Lapse (Empty America) http://mitchmckenna.com/post/11909/san-francisco-time-lapse-empty-america

It's crazy to think, I've lived in SF for over 3 years now. I now recognize almost all the places in this video now.

The "Empty America" series begins in San Francisco. From the Golden Gate Bridge to Fisherman's Wharf to Lombard Street to Ghirardelli Square to the Bay Bridge - get a good look at some of San Francisco's most iconic landmarks (wiped empty of tourists and traffic).

San Francisco Rolls Out Smarter Parking Meters http://mitchmckenna.com/post/7996/sfpark-overview

Find parking faster. Pay more easily. Avoid tickets. The SFpark project is a two-year federally funded pilot of new parking management technologies and approaches. Less circling and fewer double-parked cars give us cleaner air and safer streets for bicyclists and pedestrians. With less traffic, public transit and emergency vehicles move more easily.
