The following series of shots was taken two weeks ago when me and my family decided to stroll San Francisco.
The following series shows the Alcatraz. Alcatraz as defined by Wikipedia is an island located in the San Francisco Bay, 1.5 miles (2.4 km) offshore from San Francisco, California, United States.[1] Often referred to as The Rock, the small island early-on served as a lighthouse, a military fortification, a military prison, and a Federal Bureau of Prisons federal prison until 1963.[2] Later, in 1972, Alcatraz became a national recreation area and received landmarking designations in 1976 and 1986.

The Alcatraz Island from afar. This was taken from the inland of San Francisco.
Another angle/view of Alcatraz - taken from the same location (minus that tree branch/twig hanging in the foreground).
And finally, Alcatraz when hit by the setting sun.

Hi Noreen, thanks for visiting and following my blog - what an honour you found it interesting enough to do so! By the way, your photos are beautiful. It's really nice to see your photos of Alcatraz because I'm planning to visit SFO next month.

Hi Toni,
You're welcome! I just find your photos interesting and could serve as my inspiration in upcoming projects that I am going to do!
Thanks for the appreciation of my photos! I do have other entries about SFO and there's more to come! I love that city!
Have fun in advance if your planned travel to SFO will be pushed through! I know you'll enjoy that city by the bay..:)
