I remember when I was there, the BR parkway offered lots and lots of interesting little shots like this. The blurred water is important in this one to really help to see it. It is a nice shot that shows off the parkway and brings back warm memories to me. Thanks for sharing. -- Best regards,

This would go well in the series of shots that Shel was showing about things in the area. Many were unusual to me, even though they were more commonplace for him. This shot is unusual, but being in San Francisco, you do see some odd things. -- Bruce Sunday, July 30, 2006, 11:01:25 AM, you

Thanks for your efforts Adelheid. Very much appreciated. A suggestion I'd like to throw out there... Wondering what people think about changing the background color for the photo pages to something close to 18% gray... #7F7F7F ? I often put a white frame around a photo for visusal effect
