Captured with a small mirrorless camera and 18mm lens, on a small tripod. I had no shifting lens, so this was shot head on with a wider lens and then cropped.

Harsh midday sun is normally not ideal for architectural photos, but the hard light nicely brought out the clapboard siding of this (since demolished) rather dilapidated old former antique shop.

Side note: A mile or two behind this shop is the (now inaccessible) abandoned ghost town of Drawbridge, CA, which is slowly sinking into the bay. But thats another story for another day.
