Tales of the City


This photo was taken from the Presidential Suite at the Fairmont Hotel atop Nob Hill. Apparantly before becoming the presidential suite, this apartment served as the private residence for the Swig family. Pretty amazing suite complete with a billard room, a few bedrooms, oppulent bathrooms, a private elevator, a dining room and the most amazing deck from where this picture was taken.

alone for once


This photo was taken in the early morning hours in Florence, Italy. One of my favorite things to do is to walk city streets alone particularly in the early morning or late night hours and take pictures. I find the time so peaceful.

City Hall


If you have not walked around inside City Hall in San Francisco before it’s definately something worth doing. I had an hour to kill one day and took the plunge through the metal detector and did a little exploring.

The Roses of Filoli


Filoli Gardens is perhaps the most spectacular garden in the Bay Area. The garden is on an old converted estate in Woodside.

Firebug


This photo is of friends sitting around a large campfire out in the countryside in Chianti after many bottles of wine.
