I took a long walk starting at 7AM (6AM as far as my body was concerned, since it was the first day of daylight savings!) as the fog was lifting, up to the top of Potrero Hill, down to the waterfront, up the Embarcadero, up the Greenwich steps to Coit tower on Telegraph Hill, then down Filbert to Hyde (to the top of Russian Hill), and return to Potrero Hill about 1pm. It was a beautiful day for a long walk in the city. Along the way I saw a number of parrots in the trees around Coit Tower, and got pictures of a few of them.
I did a lot of playing around with composition and exposure, so probably only a subset are really interesting, but there are a few shots that I really like.
