Travel Photo of the Day – Dolores Park San Francisco

Today’s picture is an oldie from the archives. Dolores Park San Francisco is one of my favourite parks in the world and here’s why. I took this photo lying down on the grass to give it a tilted view. The sprawling view of the metropolis lends this photo a bigger canvas.

Exposure:  1/3200 sec at f/3.5 and ISO 100. Taken with the Canon550D and lens EFS 10-22mm.

San Francisco Giants Victory Parade

San Francisco is one of the most beautiful cities in the world  and sometimes it is more than just the architecture. The San Francisco Giants won the World Series in Baseball and this brought almost a million baseball fans to cheer their team during their victory parade. Here is my visual chronicle from the San Francisco Giants Victory Parade.

Giants World Series

The West coast is celebrating a victory while the east coast of America is suffering the wrath of one of the worst storms in history. My prayers go out to all the folks affected by hurricane Sandy.

It was a sea of orange and watching the enthusiasm from a vantage point was truly an experience.

 As you can probably tell, we weren’t the only ones who took vantage points to watch the parade

But I doubt, anyone managed to score a view as breathtaking as this. For all of you know who would like to know, this is from one of the rooms on the 21st floor of Parc 55 Wydham Hotel. The sweeping views of the city was just magnificent

The support was accompanied by aerial and

ground level support. This was the Giants second victory in three years.

The players and the entourage just kept coming and the crowd erupted with every single name that was announced.

The Giants fans were crazy and this is my favourite shot of every one of the fans looking to click a picture. Were you one of these crazed fans? What are you going to do now that the baseball season is over? Hit me up in the comments and let me know.

 

Dolores park is a park with a view

 

Delores Park, San Francisco

Today’s picture was taken at Dolores Park commonly known as Mission Park is a city park in San Francisco.The park is popular among San Franciscans looking for outdoor relaxation and recreation. It offers spectacular views of the city in clear sunshine and it’s not too shabby when it’s overcast either. I love the way the skies howl with delight in this picture.
