One of the Hills: Architecture and Discovery in San Francisco

Telegraph Hill, one of those hilly neighborhoods you can get lost in for hours and hours - with widespread views of the city and the bay. There's so many hidden gems in the area and a lot of dead ends that lead to mysterious staircases, creating even more wonder and discovery. 

I particularly loved this view and decided to tweak the colors of the blue sky and residential buildings to give it more of a vintage-y, retro flair. 

 

Symmetrical Trees and Reflections By the Waterfront

While walking by the pier along the waterfront, I noticed these simple, symmetrical trees aligned together across the water and had to capture this spectacular photo, especially with the mid-afternoon sun shining below and clouds sweeping across the sky. The extra glow and the reflections don't hurt either!

Translucent Light Reflections Across the City

And the obsession with reflections continues...I loved the striking reflections of the nearby skyscrapers with the mid afternoon sunlight streaming down right from the window.
