San Francisco is full of texture and emotion. This post tries to capture some of that vibe in this age of pandemic.
Not since our pre pandemic visit to Dublin, Edinburgh and Glasgow have we been in a city. So here from a recent trip is COLOR AND NUANCE, the first post of an urban celebration of "The City."
I hope you'll give yourself a couple of minutes to look at these frames, their color and detail, the larger the screen the better.
Taken in total or block by block San Francisco is a artful, arty and visually entertaining.
I'm always fascinated by how people interact in public spaces. These shots capture the social distancing with dashes of California color and irony. Create your own dialogue for the couples.
Look around where you live and notice what you see that others may not.
See you down the trail.
Fantastic photos,Tom. Really captures the life of the city.
ReplyDeleteThanks. A fun city to have a camera along.
DeleteWe love San Francisco, my granddaughter Sophia lives there, she works for an International Urban Design and Planning company. They have offices all over the world. Ms. S said people from the other offices world wide all want to transfer to SF.
ReplyDeleteIt is unique.
DeleteWe haven't been downtown for a while now, but I love being a tourist in my city, Seattle.
ReplyDeleteHope you will be able to visit soon. We've always enjoyed our time in Seattle and have loved the vibrant greenness you can find there.
DeleteMy favorite city. Thanks for the tour.
ReplyDeleteThere is now a walking tour that goes to or near to where your favorite uncle used to swim in the bay near the bridge.
DeleteLove it Tom---great photos~~~we are ready to go back for this Asian Art https://exhibitions.asianart.org/?_ga=2.156666483.91664167.1630781048-1884015880.1630781048 highly recommended by Helmut fromm CCAT as being superior to Van Gogh which we saw a few months back. Miss seeing you at CCAT!!! I am the docent 1:30 to 4:00 tomorrow---would LOVE to see you two❤️
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link., We saw advertisements for the exhibition. It looks as though it will be spectacular. Hope to see you out and about soon. I miss the old CCAT receptions and shows.
DeleteI hope the guy doesn't get a ticket for no parking. That would be adding insult to injury for sure. Great photos. "Heist" -- love that. Only in SF.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mike. As for the poor guy beneath the no parking sign, I don't think would have cared. It was interesting to see how passersby made sure he was breathing, in whatever state of intoxication.
