I have saved most of the negatives and slides from over 45 years of photography starting with my seventh grade photo class where I got hooked. I recently emptied out my storage unit and came across boxes and boxes of old black & white negatives. Most of the photos are what I call record shots and my hope is that someone will see themselves in these images and that will spark a memory from when we were all a little younger. The following image posts will be random in time and place but each image was a building block on my journey as a photographer, mostly learning from my mistakes.

The Road to Black Mountain

Stephen Whalen August 28, 2023

A lone commuter drives the Carmel Valley Road shortcut connecting Del Mar to Hwy 15 before Hwy 56. The road was not maintained and made for a slow, bumpy ride but the alternatives were Del Dios to the North or Miramar Raod to the South.

Georges Beach Parking Cardiff

Stephen Whalen January 23, 2023

Curious beachgoers try to figure out how this VW with Michigan plates managed to wrap itself around a telephone pole South of The Chart House in Cardiff. Maybe 2 am drive home from one of the local bars on Restaurant Row.

Bridge Jump Hwy 101 Del Mar

Stephen Whalen March 24, 2021
Three boys jump from the Hwy 101 bridge into the San Dieguito rivermouth in Del Mar. I remember shooting the jump but I  don’t know why I was in that spot exactly at that moment.
