walkabout #1_8.11.2011

A jpg of the corner of 14th and Noe in my neighborhood.  Note the fluffy trees that line both sides of Noe Street between Duboce Ave and Market St., making it beautiful to walk along.


Here is a small corner market at the corner of 14th and Noe.  They make good sandwiches & sell bottled water and pomegranates, which are in season if I am not mistaken.

A mural on the walls of McKinley elementary school, on Divisadero St. and 14th St.  The word "Respect" there mirrors a tattoo on the back of the bald head of a character in Nicolas Winding Refn's film Pusher.

A staircase in the neighborhood off of Roosevelt Way that I did not know existed.  That is why I love it so much. Duboce triangle is full of such surprises.

I made this jpg on the fly, by instinct.  I think what caught my eye, in hindsight, was the similarities between these three buildings.

A view looking south to the intersection of Castro St. and Market St.  I like the Muni bus cut in half there, and the homes in the distant haze.

Here is a special effect jpg of a few forms off of Market Street, above Castro.  Turn the corner and walk a block down to the post office.

Dog scene in front of Bi-Rite, on 18th street near Guererro St.  The owner of these two pooches appeared right after and shot me a puzzled glance.  I felt a touch of impropriety, though I am no dog papparazzi.  I do like them, though.
A cafe on Folsom St. near 17th St. that we'd like to check out.
