Woops, i meant out at the Dog Beach

Woops, i meant out at the Dog Beach

I will only say this when shooting at Dog Beach. Make sure you keep your camera well hidden when shooting at Dog Beach. There have been times when visiters to the beach see a camera the think you're taking pics of other people and they call The City of Coronado Police. The Coronadoi Police will threaten to bring you in to headquaters if there is a complaint about photography on the beach. The Coronado Police are well versed in the Governments regulation on photography of government property including aircraft and ships.  There have been times when photographers have not been hassled at all.

!.  Keep your camera out of sight when not shooting aircraft.
2. Don't take  pics of other people
3. have a good time on the beach.

I dunno, I've never been hassled by the police when I'm out at the beach.  Then again, I rarely take pix at the beach during the summer when all the people are there, and I'm never on Dog Beach, I shoot a bit farther down the beach (closer to where bathrooms are at Ocean Dr and Ocean Ct).  Here are some from last January, when the beach was empty

Nice ones!

Hey, thanks.  It was the best day I've ever seen out there.  There was an exercise going on, plus about a dozen Goshawks came in prior to going out to the boat for CQs.

I am going to have to take off work one day and head on down there.  These two shots are great!

I too, would say that most photographers are or won't be hasseled while shooting from anywhere along the part of Coronado State Beach, that ultimately meets Nas North Islands fence. I have been on the beach in the spring and summer months with Fencecheckers i know and in October when Raaver and friend were visiting...... Not one sign of a Coronado Police Officea
