I am a native San Franciscan. Since becoming a photographer I’ve found The City always ready for her close-up, blemishes and all. I love doing shots here— can’t let tourists have all the fun.

Yo, Walt – nice to see a bunch of your work of late. 👍
Little trip down memory lane in this one because I used to ride out of Golden Gate Park Stables a gazillion years ago.
So Leafs have new gm and coach, plus won the #1 draft pick, kid out of Whitehorse, Yukon Territory: insane talent from a gorgeous corner of the world. Go Leafs! 🤩
Thanks!Yes, been on a roll lately. Good to hear from you! Wie gent’s?
Had none (sic) idea you were “horsey”, partner. You rode “western’ of course, yeah? Recent events as a “hand” at a ranch in El Sobrante have curtailed my riding. Giving us horses is proof that The Creator loves us!🐴❤️ I miss it. So what’s your story?
You’ve got me reading the Sportscenter chyron for Leafs scores. Haha! (Do you go to the Shark Tank when they’re in San Jose?) At least looks like they’re moving a good direction. Go Leafs!
Thanks for checking in.
Happy trails!
Edit: “Wie geht’s?”
Ha ha! Heute abend mir gehts ist sehr gut, danke. 😊
English in the ring, western out trekking. Best ride was southern France: 120 miles round-trip, 6 days, 5 nights. Good times!
I’ve seen the Leafs win, lose, and tie at the Tank. We’ll see where I catch ’em this season.
Looking forward to catching more of your snaps – great stuff! 👍
More later –

120 miles round-trip? Oh, baby! What a ride that must’ve been! And in the south of France? Good times indeed!
Always a pleasure! Keep in touch.
Go, Leafs!
