125, after the rain

I could not pass up the reflection...
This is the grungy-fied version of the building. I have posted a more "authentic" one here!

Under Over

Playing with film again, which is very liberating when street shooting in San Francisco.
This "herborist's scale" in a little garden in the Mission made me smile.

Looking together in the same direction...

Gotta love those graffiti artists :)

Hang on

Wasn't even a beautiful day to do the laundry!

Free wheel

When I don't have my DSLR with me, I still usually have 2 cameras in my bag, but one is funnier than the other because of all the filters I can instantly apply.
This time however, I wanted a different feel so I played on the computer.

Eat Bay Fish Daily?

The graffiti renders the Fish & Game poster unreadable. How do I know whether to eat or not to eat Bay fish daily? But looking at the murky waters below the pier, no fish at all seems like a good option...

Grafitti

A piece of "street art", except we're not in the street but at the top of the hill in Bernal Heights. This graffiti among others adorns the base of the American Tower (which is particularly ugly). Not sure what it says, but I like the mix of the spirals and curves with the straights lines, and I see plenty of elephants!

Fire hydrants are one of my favorite street subjects. This little guy was really posing for me :)

Wired

The world and its ever growing need for energy and communication, connections. I find some strange beauty in this jungle of ugly wires overhead.
