Coit Tower & Pioneer Park (Part 4) - 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.

This is part 4 of my photos. I have more photos taken from the top of Coit Tower and a few photos taken near 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.

Columbus Tower/California Street - San Francisco, CA (Part 1)

A bit over a week back (on 10-12-2013), there was a small photowalk in San Francisco, CA that I had attended. We took photos in the Columbus Tower area and the San Francisco Ferry Building area. I will be splitting the photos into 2 parts. In these 2 parts, I will have photos of the Columbus Tower, the Transamerica Pyramid, California Street, the San Francisco Ferry Building, and photos from Pier 14.

Today will be the photos from the Columbus Tower area and California Street.

It was starting to get dark when we got there, as this was a pretty late photowalk. As you can see, it was already starting to be a long exposure with the streaks of light. 

We focused on the Columbus Tower area for the majority of the photowalk. 

Here is a portrait shot of the Transamerica Pyramid.

A photo behind where we were standing. 

We kept shooting the Columbus Tower under different lighting conditions as the sun sets. 

Here is a black and white process of the photo above.

A police car happened to have drove through when I exposed this picture creating streaks of blue light. 

Getting really dark outside. 

A zoomed out shot. The distortion was from the fact that I shot this at 16mm on a full frame. 

A portrait shot of the Columbus Building.

After the Columbus Building area, we walked toward the San Francisco Ferry Building. Here is a shot of California Street at where the street intersects with Kearny Street. 

Here is a black and white process of the photo above. 

These are all the photos for today. I hope you have enjoyed viewing them. In the next part, I have photos from the San Francisco Ferry Building area and Pier 14.
