Sundays in My City, 6-6-10
The Golden Gate Bridge
The Cliff House
San Francisco Mounted Police
San Francisco City Scene
Wind blown trees at Ocean Beach
Modern sculpture at the Palace of the Legion of Honor
Musings and meanderings, poetic and otherwise, photography, travels, recipes, whatever comes my way that seems interesting to my gray matter!
When I went to San Fran, I saw the Golden Gate from afar and the prison too. There are both great places and I recently watched the movie Book of Eli in which they are the center feature.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday.
Great shots of a great city. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! What a lovely city you have there ♥ Enjoy your Sunday!!

My goodness those are wonderful shots! the cliff house looks so neat and the golden gate bridge is breathtaking!
ReplyDeleteMounted Police - how wonderful! Well done on finding a very handsome horse to photograph, with a Police officer that is also easy on the eye. Hope you are enjoying the start of Summer,

Sonya - I get a thrill myself whenever I look at these San Francisco pictures.
ReplyDeleteMickle in NZ - Wasn't this mounted policeman a handsome fellow? He'd only been with the group for about ten weeks. We chatted for a little while after I told him I'd been a forensic nurse for the city. We knew a lot of the same cops!
ReplyDeleteI guess it's winter for you and Zebby in NZ....stay warm and dry.

This just put a big smile on my face because I so love this city. It's nice to see SF celebrated. I could photograph it for the rest of my life and always find something interesting.
ReplyDeleteHi Carmen! Lovely shots of your wonderful town!!

Blogtrotter Two is departing Turkey 2009! Enjoy the views and have a great week ahead!!
In my mid-20s I lived in San Francisco for two years. It seemed around every corner was one amazing view after another with some days looking like to could see forever! It's a beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteI was notified that your book was shipped by Amazon.com on Friday. It should be here early this coming week. I'll keep you post and will definitely comment on Amazon when I finish reading it.
Happy SIMC
You have a gifted eye for choosing subjects and also for capturing in a most educational light. And entertaining. You are a real professional. You MUST know that.
ReplyDeleteExcellent!
Never been to San Francisco, but everyone I know has. And now I feel as if I have been there, through your pictorial.
I love seeing photos of what you get to see living in San Francisco. Thanks for sharing your view.
ReplyDeleteDid you get the name of the Police? We (my siblings) joke that if we see an handsome uniformed guy, we pretend to be lost. Twice my big sister got lost. Once even inher own city, she wasn't lost, she lost her car.
ReplyDeleteit's a beautiful place.......the pictures are good...............Indian Movie Industry love to shoot in SF....we have lots of movies which were completely shot there
ReplyDeletelooks so scenic and nice. the bridge reminds me of times it has been shown in films where it crashes down with the disasters!
