What a delight it must be for you to compose your posts, because they are always such a delight to scroll through!! I appreciate the food for thought so very much. I'll bet you are a laid back, calm person!
The weather here is not amenable to reflections either Sylvia, and I too went digging through the files. I must say, my files are skimpier than yours. Your photos are gorgeous. I love the clipper ship. Wouldn't it be nice to sailing aboard it now! Have a great weekend.
Great photos and words Sylvia!
Much to see around the Golden Gate Bridge...
Sylvia, always magnificent photos. Golden orange sunset is incredibly beautiful!! Shimmering reflection of light looks like the road to a wonderful place. I do love all of them!
Have a great weekend!
The shadow of the bridge is amazing! Great moods in other pictures! Have a nice week-end, dear Sylvia!
Awesome! These are so good Sylvia. The top shot brings back great memories. Can you believe that I lived in the S.F. Bay area for 5 yrs and I don't have any bridge or building pictures.
So very nice. Your words are especially intriguing to me today...I love your golden sunset. Beautiful post for a beautiful weekend! Have a great one, Sylvia!
Love your photos, particularly that sunset, but your words are magically linked to the images... Have a wonderful weekend, Sylvia!

I really like the perspective of the bridge and, of course, your sunset shot!
Lovely reflections and quotes....especially like that John Burroughs quote. 'twould be oh so sweet for the sun to do it's thing on a more regular basis.
The Golden Gate Bridge is always a winner but I love you got the gently arcing shadow in your photo.
A sailing ship is always a guaranteed thumbs up for me.
Wow the bridge is awesome!
Beautiful reflections Sylvia. Thank you for sharing.

Burroughs has captured my sentiments these busy days... but it is the Buddha quote I live by, or else I lose the day entirely. You have an eye for beauty, Sylvia. You too have a terrific weekend!
J'aime vraiment la première et la forme de l'ombre projetée par le pont, vraiment très graphique
Lovely reflections, Sylvia. I especially like the bridge shot!
Gorgeous skies Sylvia!
Hi Sylvia! Oh that first shot! I wanna go!!!! Happy weekend!
San Francisco is the only city I have lived in which I still like. I can't explain why, but it is a special place for me. Thanks for reminding me; I recognized that bridge instantly!
La primera es magnífica, con una perspectiva genial y unos reflejos maravillosas. Las otras también bonitas. Las citas son verdades que nos deben de servir para amar la vida.
The first is superb, with great perspective and amazing reflexes. The other pretty well. Appointments are truths which must serve to love life.
The reflection of the ship is subtle and very beautiful.
Suas fotos são lindas! Gostei da sombra da ponte na água! A última foto também está perfeita!
Would that be the Golden Gate ? Or is it some other bridge. Like your photo, Sylvia.
Beautiful, Sylvia, as always. I love photos of water. Thanks!

I love the quote by John Burroughs!
Sylvia, The bridge reflection is awesome, and the sunset is so serene, peaceful, and beautiful! Nice work! Again, I LOVE the quotes--between the photos and your lovely quotes, your blog is one that is not to be missed. Have a wonderful weekend--I'm guessing it will involve some "picture taking". Mickie
Beautiful archival photos here, Sylvia. I love the water I see so often on your blog, it's something I really miss living so far from the ocean. Have a great weekend.
Wonderful , bridge one is superb.
I'm glad you have an extensive archive of wonderful photos. You know I really like tall ships, but your photo of the bridge is wonderful.
Beautiful pictures! And how do I love the Golden Gate Bridge... I'm biased, I know.
Outstanding pictures! The Golden Gate Bridge is amazing with its reflection.
Hope your weekend is delightful.

Bellissimo questo ponte così rosso !!!

Buona giornata :)

I must follow the Buddha's teaching of living in the present and not worrying about the past or future. I do too much of that.
The Buddha's teachings are very wise.
all so beautiful!!
Those are beautiful potos. My favourite is the last one. Great shots.
Have a great weekend.
popping by to say hi. :) Enjoy the moment, cheers.
gorgeous pics!
love the falling flowers effect!
lovely blog!
happy weekend :)

I just love the bridge shadow on the water... That is a great point of view on this so famous monument we always see front, usually...
All the photos are beautiful as always...loved the one of the bridge with an almost perfect reflection. Have a great weekend. :)
The Golden gate bridge must have awed so many people. Your bridge photo is great, brings me back to 1977 when I too was taken there to look at it.
Have a great weekend. If you go to San Francisco again, buy a giant crab for me.
These are all wonderful, I especially love the bridge shot and it's shadow!

I loved the memories your picture of the Golden Gate brought back this morning of my trip to SF. :)
beautiful collection of photos. Each on is worthy of its own frame!
