Favorite picture of San Francisco trip

I took 320 pictures while in SF, with the vast majority featuring bridges, Alcatraz, or water.

The one above- taken with my camera phone- is my favorite for the fact that the poor cameraphone lens unintentionally blurs the view to produce a soft, almost impressionist view of the city and Alcatraz. (Click on the picture for a full view.)

What do you think?

Uncommon Man's Creed

"I do not choose to be a common man. It is my right to be uncommon -- if I can. I seek opportunity -- not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me. I wish to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incentive for a dole, I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of utopia. I will not trade freedom for beneficence, nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master, nor bend to any threat. It is my heritage to stand erect, proud, and unafraid, to think and act for myself, to enjoy the benefit of my creations, and to face the world boldly and say, "this I have done." All this is what it means to be an American." -- Anonymous
