A collection of the infinitesimal awesomeness… that makes this city OUR city.Tumblr (3.0; @curioussf)http://curioussf.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2lbacR4H41r2ufz7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>From skyline-defining buildings to oddities only a local could love, everyone has a sight that signifies home. Take a fresh look at your surroundings and capture a photograph illustrating this week’s theme. Our favorites will receive showers of adulation, maddest of props, and maybe even a shiny little thumbs-up emoji. HOW TO PLAY ALONG: 1. Snap your very own original photo 2. Post it to Twitter or Instagram with the tag #locallandmark 3. Win an extra helping of self esteem when we select your photo for the round-up.

All the districts have their own patented aesthetic of what makes them special, and I feel like they thrive off of one another perfectly. I especially appreciate golden gate park and the presidio. We are really lucky to have that sort of terrain here, and if you explore it enough, it’ll make you forget you’re even in a city! SF is a magical place. Even on the gloomiest of days, it’s so colorful here.</span></p> <p><span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/CudunkoPhoto?ref=ts">Cudunko Photography</a></span></p>http://curioussf.tumblr.com/post/21033319129http://curioussf.tumblr.com/post/21033319129Fri, 13 Apr 2012 11:23:00 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m29yb96oK41r2ufz7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><ul><li>Name: Mat Rick</li> <li>hood: Mission</li> </ul><p><span>I love San Francisco because it’s truly a city of infinite possibilities.
