After watching an episode on the National Geographic channel on earthquakes, I was looking forward to shooting this location.

But with bad luck lingering around me that day it sure made it difficult:
1. Forgot the connecting plate for my ball head so I was about to go “3Podless”
2. Desperately seeking a Photo shop in Frisco to purchase a new ballhead.
3. Finding parking in Downtown Frisco was darn near impossible.
4. Getting lost on my way to my 1st location tested my breaking point.
5. And last but not least, removing my old ball head to install the new one took well over 30 mins. With the sun setting in the backround my mood for shooting that day was quickly diminishing.

Mussel Point is located in Daly City just north of Pacifica along Highway 1. It is where the San Andreas fault line meets land and just runs straight down to Southern Kali.
