SF sometimes looks like Sarajevo
I bet you probably don’t believe me, but it’s true. I mean, we all know there is no war in SF… (or at least not the same kind of war), but some places look like they’ve been bombed!
Grain silos become art walls
When the Loma Prieta Earthquake hit San Francisco in 1989, the plant you are about to see in the photos was shut down.

This is my twenty-fifth participation in the Weekly photo challenge. This week’s theme is “threshold.”
Anna’s Hummingbird at Milagra Ridge
I never thought I could photograph a humming bird. Those guys are so fast and when they are on branch, they blend in and yu can really see them. Imagine how excited I was when I finally was able to take a picture of one!
