sunday in the city.
this sunday in the city, lucy and i took a walk to dolores park in the mission, and then on over to valencia to 16th and up guerrero…a nice walk, full of picturesque finds, and some of my favorite haunts*. i had my new camera in hand, as promised, and such a great time snapping away. here’s what we saw.
*haunts: dolores park, bi-rite market, bi-rite ice creamery, claudia kussano, dolores park cafe, tartine, belljar, cassanova lounge, clarion ally and 18 reasons.

Great images! Congratulations on your new camera!
My goodness… I wish I could take photos like that. I need to upgrade my camera (old digital) and get some practice in!
Amazing pictures indeed: colorful, inspiring, retro and modern at the same time.
That’s what I would call a really nice sunday :)
Thanks for sharing them!
Ciao.
Oh this just makes me SO excited–I’m off to San Francisco this afternoon to find an apartment! (Moving in September and I swear, your Sunday in the City posts convince me again and again that I’m doing the right thing!)
Gorgeous!

Beautiful pictures. I love living close to the city. I am thinking of purchasing a camera and am wondering what kind of camera did you get?
I’m visiting my second home (sf) on Thursday and you’ve managed to photograph a few of my favorite places! Great shots & thanks for making me even more excited for the weekend! XO!
I love those first two photographs!
thanks, everyone. it was a good day of picture taking!
karen – i got a Nikon D90 – i had all the lens (these were taken with a 50mm), so i just bought the body.
These are amazing photos of the Mission. It’s always so interesting to see the city in another person’s eyes. Hope you had a great weekend!
Love the arrow with the lights in it!
I can never get enough of your Sundays in the City….have been a Canon girl for years, but your images are making me consider going Nikon!!!
Stunning photography! I used to frequent Dolores Park when I lived in the city! Love that area.
As I write this post I am enjoying a delicious Buratta and glass of red vino at Vicolettos in San Fran. Just wanted to say a quick thanks. I live in Atlanta and used your shopping guides to lighten my wallet and increase my luggage home. Thanks for some amazing suggestions and inspiration of the city
thanks very much everyone!
catherine – happy to help! sounds like you’re having a great time…now get off the internet! ;)
I love these photos. The colours you’ve captured are very inspiring!

Your lovely photos remind me that sometimes I try to get too much in my pictures. Sometimes less is more. Sometimes the details are just enough. I think this is especially true if you’re working in difficult lighting. Thanks for the inspiration! :)
thank you all!
kelli – i just point and shoot. a lot. and some work out, and many don’t. i just try and have fun!
