Adrift is a love letter to the fog of the San Francisco Bay Area by Simon Christen. While time-lapse photographers already require a level of patience beyond pointing and shoot photography, Simon also had to try and predict when the next foggy morning would be and hope it would be the right conditions for filming.
The weather conditions have to be just right for the fog to glide over the hills and under the bridge. I developed a system for trying to guess when to make the drive out to shoot, which involved checking the weather forecast, satellite images and webcams multiple times a day. For about 2 years, if the weather looked promising, I would set my alarm to 5am, recheck the webcams, and then set off on the 45-minute drive to the Marin Headlands.
