Artist's Description
The Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco was the centerpiece of the rather elaborate 1915 Panama Pacific Exposition, created for San Francisco to honor the discovery of the Pacific Ocean and the completion of the Panama Canal. Also celebrated was the rebirth of the city after the 1906 earthquake and fire.
To say the popular attraction today offers photo possibilities is like saying the Pacific has waves. Here's one look.
About Don Struke
Although I don't call myself a photographer, I have taken thousands of photos through the years and now and then I end up with one that is printworthy. Well, at least by my standards, which might be somewhat less than the norm. But you are the judge (continued below). PLEASE CLICK ON AD TO LEARN ABOUT THIS SITE I'm fortunate enough to have enjoyed a rather varied background in marketing, advertising, public relations, print and electronic media, TV production, and publication design in both corporate and non-profit organizations. As my list of photos on Fine Art America slowly grows, it should be apparent that my interests are all over the place, from the sight of beautiful flowers and landscapes to aviation and high performance...

Thank you, John. I know the P of FA is no stranger to your camera either.

Thank you, Sharon, for a nice, nice comment. The towering scale of the Palace allows this kind of "pose", of course, and its many shades and colors are a bonus. Picture this same image in a dreary cathedral concrete color and you can see how much these colors add.

This is such a beauty, Don. You captured it at such a great angle. I love the pink hues in the building and with the foliage, gorgeous. Certainly striking and befitting both the discovery of the Pacific Ocean in the same area as the Panama Canal and the completion of the Canal.
