Fluidr / JaveFoto's "Explored for 1/8000 of a sec" set

After spending the day in San Francisco, CA I decided to visit America's crookedest streets.

What does this mean? The steep, hilly street was created with sharp curves to switchback down the one-way hill past beautiful Victorian mansions. The street is paved with bricks and is an amazing site. Although the street is cool during the day at night i feel it looks it's best at night.

After scouting for a photo location I came upon this one. Without interrupting homeowners I eased my way onto someone's grass and clicked away. Thanks for the visits. Jave

Bay Bridge leading to San Francisco, CA. I hooked up with Rich who was feeling very adventurous. He said he wanted to photograph the Bay Bridge or Shark Fin Cove. We had both recently seen an AMAZING photo of the bridge by Patrick Smith. So we both decided on the photographing the bay bridge. We drove on HWY 880 which was heavily congested with commuters trying to get to San Francisco. As we arrived on Treasure Island we scrambled to figure out where this "Patrick Smith" photo was taken from.

We found a possible location just off the main road. So we parked and scouted it out. As we were scouting it out we observed a female holding her crouch and starring at us. I thought to myself here we go, here's the decoy we are about to get "ROBBED". She looked at us and said, "sorry i have to go pee". I tried to ignore her as she took her pants off and squatted right in front of us. I tried to stay focused but couldn't. I told rich, "dude there's no place to park, I'm going to ask pisser girl to give us a ride back here after we park. So i asked "pisser" girl if she would give us a ride back and she did:) She drove us back and we walked down the hill. It was a very steep walk down the hill but well worth the shot. If you want to know how you too can have a "pisser girl" take you there email me I'll give you the parking and location info:) A very special thanks to Jonathan Jonathan for providing us with last minute tips and directions on this shot! Hers' a link to rich's photo of the bridge. Rich Jave
