These are few images from Alcatraz Prison near San Francisco. These images convey the duality of the island — a crumbling island prison surrounded by the beautiful — and free — San Francisco Bay. As always, click on the photos for a larger view.

These are few images from Alcatraz Prison near San Francisco. These images convey the duality of the island — a crumbling island prison surrounded by the beautiful — and free — San Francisco Bay. As always, click on the photos for a larger view. I spend last weekend in San Francisco with my wife. During my trip, I was fortunate to run across Dennis Dooley’s booth at an outdoor arts fair. Dooley has made a living for the past twenty years by selling prints at fairs and as a licensed San Francisco street artist, and claims to have the oldest active street artist license in the city. Dooley has a wonderful eye for composition, and his street photography fantastic. Check out his galleries and pay particular attention to his Urban B&W and Urban Color portfolios. I purchased a print of the image above as a sort of fine art photography souvenir, and used all my willpower to not to purchase a half-dozen other images. Dooley has some other striking images (images, frankly, that are stronger than the one I purchased) but don’t fit with the aesthetic of my house. Here’s one of my favorites Rather than link to Dooley’s other great images, I recommend that you click through to his site and enjoy for yourself.
