Such a classical look, through and through – the building, the landscaping, and your treatment of it in the photograph!

Thanks, Lynn. It’s such a pretty color, but I thought the B&W made its classical architecture really stand out. Glad you like it. 🙂

Hope you’re doing okay. 🙂

It’s a beauty, isn’t it? It’s nearer to the Presidio and the water. It’s been nicely restored, too. Thanks, David. Yes, we are plugging along. Haven’t cooked this much in years! 🙂 Hope you and yours are doing well, too.

I loved photographing around it last spring when we were there, great location. Your slightly moody monochrome gives it a different feel though, nice work 👍✅😺

Thank you, Andy. Glad you’ve had a chance to photograph it. It’s such a pretty color, I don’t often think to do monochrome, but, I agree, it does gives it a classic, historic feel.

This photo is excellent, Jane, really capturing the elegance and beauty of the Palace of Fine Arts. I’m so glad it wasn’t pulled down after the World’s Fair, and that the community recently rallied to fund and restore it. Sending well wishes your way….

Thanks so much, Jet. I was pleased with how the monochrome gave it a different feel. I hope you went to the 100th anniversary exhibitions – full of photos and ephemera. Yes, so glad for the preservation and restoration! Hang in there and be safe. 💙

I must’ve seen pictures of this building before, but didn’t realize how handsome it is! A pretty nice keepsake from the 1915 world’s fair, it’s a great image.

Thanks, Robert. They restored it not too long ago. It’s beautiful and peaceful to walk around. We enjoyed the 100th anniversary celebration full of World’s Fair memorabilia and photos. Glad you enjoyed this one. 🙂
