UCSF Parnassus Heights & Golden Gate NRA (Cellphone Photos) - San Francisco, CA

Yesterday, on the 2nd February 2026, I had to go to UCSF Parnassus Heights Campus in San Francisco, CA for more medical testing due to complications from a COVID infection a little over 2 years ago. I took a few photos at UCSF, and after I was done with the medical tests, my parents and I went over to Golden Gate National Recreation Area. I visited Crissy Field Beach, Fort Point, and Torpedo Wharf. I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!

Message from the Photographer: If you have been following me on here for a while, you'll know that I've had Long COVID for over 2 years now, and the virus has completely screwed up my life. Unfortunately none of the specialists and doctors here on the edge of the San Francisco Bay Area in the Tri-Valley knows anything about Long COVID. Unfortunately all the specialists in the field seems to be at the major hospitals around the area.

On Top Of Coit Tower (Part 3) - San Francisco, CA

On September 1st, 2019, I took a trip to San Francisco, CA. I visited Asian Art Museum (I didn't take photos at this location), Civic Center, and went to the top of Coit Tower for the first time despite living in the San Francisco Bay Area for over a decade now. The photos are split into 4 blog posts. I hope you enjoy viewing these photos.

Parts: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 

This is part 3 of my photos. I have more photos taken from the top of Coit Tower.

Message From The Photographer: If you've been following me on social media, you'd know I've been dealing with vision impairment and gradual vision loss since August 2018. The conditions are neurological, so my vision isn't impaired the same amount on a daily basis, but overall it seems to be going down hill. It has slowed down and made taking photos, processing photos, using computers, etc... very challenging and somewhat depressing. Some days it is impossible for me to take photos or process them. I know these photos are from a very long time ago, but I'm only just starting to get around in processing them as I'm only able to work on them at a very slow pace. I hope you can understand, and I hope you enjoy viewing these photos.
