Market Street is an important thoroughfare in San Francisco, California. It begins at The Embarcadero in front of the Ferry Building at the northeastern edge of the city and runs southwest through downtown, passing the Civic Center and the Castro District, to the intersection with Corbett Avenue in the Twin Peaks neighborhood. Beyond this point, the roadway continues as Portola Drive into the southwestern quadrant of San Francisco. Portola Drive extends south to the intersection of St. Francis Boulevard and Sloat Boulevard, where it continues as Junipero Serra Boulevard.

 

Market Street is the boundary of two street grids. Streets on its southeast side are parallel or perpendicular to Market Street, while those on the northwest are nine degrees off from the cardinal directions.

 

Market Street is a major transit artery for the city of San Francisco, and has carried in turn horse-drawn streetcars, cable cars, electric streetcars, electric trolleybuses, and diesel buses. Today Muni's buses, trolleybuses, and heritage streetcars (on the F Market line) share the street, while below the street the two-level Market Street Subway carries Muni Metro and BART. While cable cars no longer operate on Market Street, the surviving cable car lines terminate to the side of the street at its intersections with California Street and Powell Street.

 

Construction

 

Market Street cuts across the city for three miles (5 km) from the waterfront to the hills of Twin Peaks. It was laid out originally by Jasper O'Farrell, a 26-year old trained civil engineer who emigrated to Yerba Buena, as the town was then known. The town was renamed San Francisco in 1847 after it was captured by Americans during the Mexican-American War. O'Farrell first repaired the original layout of the settlement around Portsmouth Square and then established Market Street as the widest street in town, 120 feet between property lines. (Van Ness now beats it with 125 feet.) It was described at the time as an arrow aimed straight at "Los Pechos de la Chola" (the Breasts of the Maiden), now called Twin Peaks.

This is Khan. We believe she is the feral mother of Sulah and Anna. She remains an outdoor cat with minimal trust but we feed her when she shows up.

Changes and progress very rarely are gifts from above. They come out of struggles from below.

Ningú havia vist aquestes fotos fins ara, sobretot els que les varen fer. Fins que jo les he revelat ara.

 

Aquestes finestres son la única imatge visible d'un rodet en un horrible estat de conservació. No només s'havia mullat completament en algun moment (el paper estava completament enganxat a la pel·licula), sino arrugat en més d'un punt, quasi no el vaig poder carregar al revelador.

 

S'anomena "found film" a aquelles fotografies en pel•licula o placa que es troben sense revelar dins càmeres velles o per altres racons. La gracia és que ningú ha vist mai aquestes fotografies.

 

Aquest rodet prové un conjunt comprat a algú de Barró, prop d'Angulema, a França.

 

Aquest rodet, de format 120, de Kodak Verichrome, i pertant segurament exposat entre els anys 40 i 50 (es produí entre 1931 i 1956). El vaig revelar amb HC110 uns 10 minuts.

 

===================================================

 

Nobody, even less the author, had seen these pictures until now. Until I've developed them in the dark room.

 

This façade is the only useable picture in a quite damaged roll of film. It had been completely damp at some point (the backing paper was glued to the film), and it was wrinkled so I almost couldn't load into the reel. The pictures were probably taken in the 40's or 50's of the XX Century.

 

They call "found film" at those images in film or plates that are find undeveloped inside old cameras or in other places, like boxes or old houses.

 

This film is part of a large pack I bought in the internet from somebody in Barro, near Angouleme, France.

 

This one was a 127 format Kodak Verichrome film, produced from 1931 to 1956; stand developed with HC110 in c.10 minutes.

This is another shot of Catrigg Force in the Yorkshire Dales. This view is from below the main falls looking downstream. I hope you like the shot, please let me now if you do. Thanks and have a great weekend, Graham.

Waves they dance with the light

Armed with beauty and with love

Kissing the waves that roll and rise

Red-Bellied Woodpecker (female)

 

10 inches in length. Barred black and white above, pale buff below and on face. The male and female are similar except that the male has a red crown and nape while the female has a red nape only. Their reddish patch on lower abdomen is seldom visible in the field.

 

Its habitat includes open and swampy woodlands. It also comes into parks during migration and feeders in winter.

 

They range from South Dakota east through the Great Lakes and into southern New England and south to the Gulf Coast and Florida. Although not a migratory bird, some of the northern most birds will sometimes migrate south for the winter.

I find all the dry stone walls with the adjoining barns quite fascinating, as we do not have anything like that down South where I live.

I believe the barns were made to have cattle on the ground floor and feed for them on an upper level but I stand to be corrected on that if any locals to the area can confirm that.

After coming over Buttertubs pass in very thick mist we descended down into Swaledale, the Yorkshire dales, being totally new to the area I just followed my nose through small villages stopping every now and then when I saw an opportunity for photos of witch I took plenty, I don`t know any village names what I should have done is have the camera connected to my phone via Bluetooth which may have given me GPS data. Sadly the mist did obscure many views of the hills but on the other hand I had a lovely atmosphere to shoot in.
