Poetic Shutterbug

Located on the side of an apartment building in the sunset district. Depicts the city background and the N Judah streetcar line. This is a very cute little spot in the sunset district that serves organic eats. I loved the name and artwork. Click here for more Blue Monday fun.

All Photos Taken by Me in the Sunset District of San Francisco While walking home the other day from my jaunt out at the beach, I decided to take some shots of flower beds and plantings in driveways and entrances of homes and apartment buildings.

These photos were taken at a local district park in my neighborhood right after one of our many storms. Although dark and dreary looking the air was fresh and crisp though extremely cold. Sometimes dark can be very beautiful.
