fantastic shots. you've really captured a sense of place here.

Whoops did not read the little sentence you wrote in the beginning so as I am scrolling through the pictures I am like this is not San Francisco towards the end. No way this looks like New Orleans. Now I feel foolish but anyways nice pictures San Francisco is one of the most beautiful cities we have in america.

Looks like you made it across the Bay to Oakland and Berkeley as well.

^You're not talking about a Church or a Panda, are you?

Wonderful shots. I always love your threads.

I've been to New Orleans, but I've never been to San Francisco. Is it wrong of me to say that some parts of San Fran, as pictured, seem to remind me of New Orleans?

Whatever the sentiment on that question is, I know I have to see San Francisco.

I love New Orleans but I didn't find it like San Francisco at all other than it's live and let live approach to life which I appreciate. New Orleans is a great regional hub and has such an unique culture but it doesn't seem to have the internationalism, economic and social importance that San Francisco does.

Yeah, people who like the scale and density of old New Orleans, will love San Francisco.

Which I don't see at all. And I'm familiar with both cities.

Spectacular! I echo the comment made above, you've certainly shown a sense of place in this thread for both cities. NOLA and SF are my two favorite American cities. Thanks!

Fantastic shots of a couple great cities. Thanks!

I could be crazy... but I see similarities in the appearance of the two places...

anyways, these San Fran pictures are beautiful, keep 'em coming.

I thought this was in san fran for a sec. I had to go back and read the info at the top.

Thanks for your pics of San Francisco and New Orleans. Great shots and angles.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain!:tup:

Thanks everyone!

Sweet. I really like this one.

Slammin' shots, my friend!

Aweseome pics!

And where, might I ask, is this project?
