San Francisco capture in pictures. San francisco, California is considered a photographers paradise by many who live in the San Francisco Bay area. Being a resident of this area, I have done my part of trying to capture this beautiful city with my camera. Even though I cannot do enough justice of portraying its beauty, I have tried to present some of the sights in San Francisco. Wherever possible, I have tried to add some blurb about these different places in San Francisco with help from wikipedia.org
