  3. A lovely scene, Karin. I especially like that old fashioned wrought iron fence bordering the walkway. Looks like it was a slightly windy day too. What a nice mood this one sets!

  4. I use to work just down the street, for a design firm. That is a very typical view. Wish we had the Ferry Market then. It is a great spot to "be".

  7. Exactly! All the things mentioned, the wrought iron, the sense of chilly weather are all great - but just love that pigeon!
