Being in my 60’s, I am a latecomer to photography. Yet I have found great satisfaction and pleasure in creating digital art from my photographs. Taking pictures was a hobby until surgery in 2001 left me disabled and gave me the opportunity to learn about digital art and photographic software. I’ve been selling my work online and through local galleries since 2009.

    Love this – San Francisco is one of my favorite places and I have to admit it was hot and hazy the last time I was there too! Your textures are fabulous too. But I especially love the way the trees and leaves – the silhouettes – frame this lovely shot!

  • You’re so kind, Lianne!!! I’m really happy that you like this shot! I liked the way the city seemed to glow despite the haze. If you ever go back, check out the Lincoln Park section of town (Legion of Honor and Holocaust memorial are there). It’s near the Golden Gate bridge and it’s quite beautiful. Thanks again, Lianne. I very much appreciate your visits!

  • Thanks so much, Elizabeth!!! It’s hard not to like San Francisco! Since I live in the Bay area, I’ve been there many times, but I always discover something new and fascinating each time I go.
