Daily photos from the SF Bay Area

June 12, 2008 7:30 AM

So you'd like to see daily photographs taken in San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area? You can start with What I'm Seeing and supplement your viewing with the following sites.

Fogbay's excellence is only hampered by its lack of an RSS feed, although it does categorize its posts via a handy map. Both Valerie J. Cochran's Your Waitress and Manuel Guerzoni's San Francisco Daily Photography tend to focus on urban scenes.

Donald Kimmel's A Photo a Day features mostly, though not exclusively, landscapes and the North bay. Frederic Larson has a photojournalist's eye.

Photography per se is not its focus, but Vélo Vogue provides near-daily updates on the fashions of local bicyclists. And finally, as a one-time bonus, here is an excellent set of photos taken at a long-abandoned swimming pool, now taken over by squatters.

Or I could walk outside..

Seriously though, these are some awesome photography sites, thanks for the links. There was a site, which escapes my memory/google-fu at the moment, but it was a camera setup in the marin headlands that takes a photo of SF and creates time lapse movies. It's pretty awesome, I'll see if I can find it.

Yay SF.
Thanks whir.
Can't wait to visit SF again end this month. I'll try to lure you folks to a meetup again by buying you beer.

Since the thread hasn't closed yet: Sunset Style, inexplicably, posts photos of architecture from the Sunset.
