While exploring San Francisco’s Chinatown last August, I wandered into Ross Avenue vaguely thinking I might stop by the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory for a tour and a free sample. I probably should have known better; it was a weekend at the height of summer, and plenty of other people had the same idea. I found a long line […]
My entry for Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge this week.
Chicago 1957 — I originally shared these images back in December 2017 and January 2018. Every time I look through these pictures, my desire to visit Chicago and see the museum (and all the other sights) for myself gets stronger! This dollhouse, belonging to silent film star Colleen Moore, was built in 1928 and has been on display at the museum […]

Shot on November 9, 2018, from San Francisco’s Temporary Transbay Terminal. The grey sky in the last two images is not Bay Area fog but rather smoke from the devastating Camp Fire in Butte County.

Although there was plenty of smoke in the air and we should have probably been wearing filtering masks, the conditions are even worse right now — to the point that many tourist spots have been closed until further notice. Fort Point Closed Through Sunday, November 18 […]
My entry for Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge this week. While on holiday in San Francisco I was enjoying the view from my 8th story window but wasn’t satisfied with my night photography — the images were much too blurry, with a lot of distracting “noise.” Then I switched over to the monochrome setting and I was amazed at […]
