TOWN OF PAMPLICO
This photo is absolutely stunning. Did you know that we have the biggest full moon tonight since 1993? The moon is closest to the earth and appears much bigger, as in your photo
CITY OF FLORENCE
The photos with the yellow chairs are just lovely, sublime compositions. You see the truth in the simple things in life.

Your photos are so alive. That Myrtle Beach rocks! The sign in the background of several photos says it all: Go bold or go home.

I ove the subtle play of pink and turquoise shadows cast by the trees onto the wall

Those guys are really braving it in the frigid water. You can tell in the guy on the right, that the water is freezing.
My favorite is the last photo of --- is it a sand castle, or rocks --- no matter: it is a lovely, mysterious composition. Monumental. It could also easily be the remnants of a giant fortress from thousands of years ago.

Great photo! I love how the dripping wetness of the dormer windows of the house (of somewhat ill-repute) is mirrored in the wall in the left foreground.

Beautiful collection of Valentines photos. The one with the traffic signgs strewn on the street is great. When love comes along, after one gets pierced by cupid's arrow, and hearts merge, all warning signs are pretty much useless --- and then one gets hit with a major burdon, like the statue in the last photo. Thanks to the condoms, the burden is but of emotional nature.

Just gorgeous! The luminous blue spotlight juxtaposed with the two almost eerie yellow spolights, and a single blue spot in the computer screen. MASTERFUL!

This is a lovely collection of related photos, of posts and pillars. My favorite is the one with the yellow cranes, steel pillars busy erecting concrete pillars, that in the end replace them. The photo with the elevated highways is just as wonderful.

This is one of your very best compositions yet --- a stunning photo! I love how all lines lead to the fabled tower that rises in the distance.

Muni Mishap Traps Man at Mission and 19th; SFPD & SFFD to the Rescue
Those are beautiful photos, not just the account of what happened that day, when the old man got run over and dragged by the bus - that is VERY low to the ground, with very little surviving space between the bus and the street - and survived, physically unharmed, but also the compositions and facial expressions of the rescue personel, and the bystanders. It makes me feel like I'm right there.

The Tenderloin
The Tenderloin
I love your slices of life. The woman in the sweat shirt dress and the high heels is very representative of the neigborhood - including, and especially, her poses.
Jackson, May 1996 - December 2010
I'm very sad

Out of Service Escalator, Powell Station
Poetry, simple, sophisticated, sublime.

Corner Chess Game
Boutique Hotel
Great composition, all warm, muted beige, with faint cool windows, and a black zig zag ladder leading up to the single window into the bright blue sky.

Mission Bay at Southern Embarcadero Freeway
Truly wonderful photos, my favorite is this first one. I love its combination of density and openness, and opposing feelings. The frentic highways on stilts cross directly above the idyllic house boats and the serene, open water; and yet those two worlds are far removed from each other. This is a phenomenon San Francisco is famous for. Everywhere you find conrtrasing, even opposite worlds, nature, architecture, different cultures) juxtaposed, or intermingled, always in harmony, which to me makes San Francisco one of the most beautiful city in the world.
Light Rail Tracks Berry Street
Drawbridge China Basin
I've seen this drawbridge many times, but this beautiful shot shows me a different mood I've never seen.
Who new that a hunk of concrete could be so majestic?

I'm so glad --- that makes me feel better
...was only joking since I know you could not alter anyone's post unless you've become an administrator.
Cheers!

Strange. What did you do to my post?
I didn't do anything to your post. I just wrote how much I love your beautiful photo, But there was only a question mark, no photo. However, the photo was stil there in the original post, so I hoped that readers would go to the original post.

Nature & the City at Sunrise
Lovely photo, full of atmosphere. A new life begins... every day
Skyline at daybreak
I had no idea, we had such an unusual shape in the skyline, like an organ, or altar. Actually, your photo brings out a lot of different shapes in the skyline. Great photo
Children's Garden & Carousel Area- Yerba Buena Gardens
This photo is my favorite, really wonderful, unusual composition. Very, very nice. For some reason, Urban Planet has swallowed this photo of the carousel. That's a pity, but one can always go back and see the original posting.

That house is unbelieveable. Reminds me of Van Gogh's painting "Night Cafe". Great photo!

Chinatown/North Beach Morning
All three photos are spectacular. The exuberance of the celebration in exotic Chinatown, with a multitude of contrasting shapes, jagged flags, round lampions, French Quater style balconies; a symphony in red/yellow, and cool green and blue hues --- the atmospheric twilight over the Bay Bridge sharply reflected in the canyon of houses --- and my favorite --- the very dense third photo, with the vintage brick houses and church, a beautiful study in muted reds and greens, where dots of intense colors shine brightly, the red doors, the pink flag, the cool green metal shutter, and the warm green plant by the church entrance. I love how the light, but muted street sweeps up onto the Church steps, leading to the magnificent white Gothic portal, with the statue of Mary floating above, surrounded by a muted rose bricks wall. And in this cool white of the portal glows the only really warm color in the whole photograph, a solitary lamp. Truly wonderful, insipired, inspiring photography. Bravo!

What an imaginative composition. Like a giant breaking a wooden match. Ironic, for the construction crane in itself is, in a way, a giant that constantly changes our urban landscape --- this is a beautiful photo!

all about eves: sf-ny
Very beautiful candid shot. Each of those faces tells a story...
Wonderful photo montage! Again, like an abstract painting...

It was delicious, particularly dessert. But it's time to cool it if I am to be firmer for New Year's Eve in Times Square in New York...did slip today though having a late lunch at Baby Blues 'cause I was craving real Southern mac and cheese. I passed on the kool-aid and had beer instead.
That looks like the perfect food to prepare yourself for New York on New Year's Eve. Cause it's freezing, and you have to have some meat on your bones
Looks like a real cool lunch place you went to. That burger looks delicious! Drool... -
...yes, I love Russian Hill & the Art Institute. That heavy lunch & very tall pilsner have me now feeling weary and slow and very sleepy. I am not sure what I am typing anymore. So have good weekend.
That is an amazing composition --- not sure whether you're looking out through some round porthole window, or whether that's a traffic mirror --- no matter, it's a gorgeous, surrealistic photo.

Thanks for the colorful tour through the Castro. I miss my old neighborhood. Looks like you were having a very delicious lunch!
