Kylie Greenan from Richmond, AustraliaLots to look at in this image, great capture and detail! 30 Jan 2009 6:11am Mike from Lichfield, United KingdomWhat an excellent view point.

Scott Schilling from San Martin, United StatesStephen - another fantastic composition - this has so many layers I could stare at it for an hour - I also like how the street takes my eyes to the hill beyond just covered with a thousand homes! Great Work! I love it. 30 Jan 2009 6:43am yz from Budapest, Hungarygreat and inviting 30 Jan 2009 9:37am @yz: These have been around a lot longer and are real. Twin Peak are the highest (geographic) point in San Francisco. At 281 m (922 feet) - they afford a marvelous view of our fair town.

Love this view !! 30 Jan 2009 10:56am Viewfinder from Bradenton, FL, United StatesI-want-to-visit-your-beautiful-city!!! This is a wonderful streetscape and rooftopscape (new word?). 30 Jan 2009 2:02pm @Viewfinder: A new word, indeed - and this was actually taken from a pedestrian overpass at the Convention Center. This is a great 'people watching' position. I'll also note this was taken 'hand held' with the image stabilized Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. Pretty amazing. dogilicious from Millerstown, PA, United StatesVery nice frame. An amazing expanse of city. 30 Jan 2009 2:15pm Margie from Auckland, New ZealandI love San Francisco!

I guess if I'd be here I'd be watching the view for centuries... so many things to look and discover. Thanks Stephen for this city travel! 30 Jan 2009 9:32pm Observing from West Cheshire, United KingdomSplendid shot... after following the road; with all its interesting points down to the church, we then see that huge rise of urbanization ! 31 Jan 2009 12:46am Calusarus from St Sorlin en Valloire, FranceA beautiful cityscape… I like the hills… 31 Jan 2009 3:32pm Anthony Lambert from Bielefeld, GermanyTo use a good British phrase,"Bugger me" !! 31 Jan 2009 5:15pm Paco Díaz from Palma de Mallorca, SpainFantastic view, Stephen, you make me happy with this images of my SF. 31 Jan 2009 7:43pm willow from Chelsea, United StatesBeing from the almost completely flat midwest, this is so hard to fathom - actual variation in altitude? Weird! 1 Feb 2009 6:07am Suzanne from Huntington Bch, California, United StatesThis series is such a winner. Best SF images I have ever seen. What a great perspective you've got here. Those hills come in handy. 1 Feb 2009 8:11pm Teresa from Mountain View, United StatesI love these kinds of street shots of the city. I have many from years ago that you make me want to dig up. Ah, memories. 3 Feb 2009 4:43am Kurt from San Francisco, United StatesOn perusing your images one thing that stands out is the interesting viewpoints/perspectives you've found for our city. This one for instance jumps out at me--I work right near here but have never 'seen' that street that way. Familiar landmarks from a unique perspective--great work! 7 Feb 2009 12:47am @Kurt: Again, Kurt - thanks. I hope by the time you read this you're safely back on this side of the hill. |
