San Francisco

Collection

A collection of moments where structure and atmosphere come together across San Francisco

Light shapes the city

This one covers the parts of the city that hold up under a second look: a streetcar catching color on a gray afternoon, the Ferry Building from above where the Embarcadero meets the bay, the geometry of downtown against the fog. Some of it's shot from the street, some from the air.

This collection is ongoing. New photos will be added over time.
