Oh my gracious.. these are all fabulous pictures..
I like those arches, and your title is so so true.
Your photos of the spiral stairway make it feel as if there is something very mysterious on either end if it.
thanks, i really appreciate your words! those stairs – by the way – amde me incredibly dizzy!! they were exceedingly steep!
thank you, it’s like ‘life’ speaking to me over the past 6 months telling me things i didn’t want to hear but upon reflection . . .
thank you, thank you very much!
gosh, i haven’t been there since i was a kid. your photos reminded me to go there again. love the black & white shots and the staircases. just beautiful.
thanks, seems i’m there every other day – must be the view -
I was intrigued by the crepe paper fashions, but it was your capture of the arcitectural lines that my eyes and artistic sense lingered on. Nicely done.
thank you, the lines and opportunities were/are endless at the ft. one of my favorite places in the city (and one heck of a view of the ‘bridge’)
Hopefully I can check that area out next time I’m in San Fran. Don’t know when I’ll make it there, but I’m longing to return.
give a call, lunch is on me
Sorry I missed your reply on this one! I definitely will let you know if I’m headed your way.
