Here, I found some cool pics of Folsom Street Fair which went on today. Actually, I was driving my motocycle in downtown and saw bunch of crazy people dressed up like this.
I bet most of them were high or on somethin’…. 
I swear, San Francisco always hosts the weirdest and the wackiest events in the world, but I like that. 
Make sure to not miss out on Love Fest next week, I will be there to get a little crazy.
Here’s a cool toothpick version of San Francisco downtown.
Scott, a Rohnert Park resident and supermarket produce man with time on his hands since he injured a knee, has created a 9-foot-tall sculpture of San Francisco Bay scenes, attractions and landmarks.
There’s the Golden Gate Bridge, Muir Woods, Humphrey the humpback whale, the Ferry Building and on and on — all made of glued-together toothpicks.

San Francisco Downtown in Jello
Here’s a cool site called HD-SF.com that offers live view of the San Francisco downtown in HD plus more features like time-lapse videos. Now if you live in one of those buildings and this thing has a super-zoom feature, it can be served as your security system.
The financial district, Fisherman’s Wharf, Telegraph Hill, Russian Hill and Nob Hill San Francisco as viewed from across the bay in Sausalito. The camera captures an image every fifteen seconds twenty four hours a day. San Francisco Bay is famous for its fog and if the image is gray (or all black at night) that is what you are seeing.
Who said artwork can’t be attached “sideways” onto buildings? Next time you are near on the corner of 6th and Howard near downtown, make sure to look up at this crazy building.
Remember San Francisco downtown made with cooking ware?
Here’s a really cute San Francisco downtown, all made with your edible Jello. Now, can you make them out of cocktail jellos?
This project consists of photographs and video, which depict various San Francisco landscapes. I make the landscapes by constructing scale models of the architectural elements which I use to make molds. I then cast the buildings in Jell-O. Similar to making a movie set, I add backdrops, which I often paint, and elements such as mountains or trees, and then I dramatically light the scenes from the back or underneath. The Jell-O sculptures quickly decay, leaving the photographs and video as the remains.
Zhan Wang, a Beijing-based artist, has re-created downtown San Francisco using cookware. Pretty creative I’d say although the only building I can identify is the TransAmerica building pointing up at the right of the picture.
I am guessing that the spoons at the bottom are the boats at the docks…
Lol… this is more fun than real pictures!
Zhan Wang is among the most respected artists in China, having become world-renown for his stainless steel sculptures of “scholars’ rocks,” the graceful, craggy boulders found in several provinces around China that seem to have been sculpted by natural forces into complex forms worthy of thoughtful contemplation–almost like mental or spiritual landscapes. Collecting these rocks from around China, Wang painstakingly pounds, bends, heats, and molds sections of stainless steel plate across the cloud-like topography of each rock, as if wrapping it in steel–in essence, applying a modern industrial skin to an ancient geologic body. After the steel has been shaped around the rock it is peeled away in sections, welded together as a single unit–a now-hollow duplicate of the rock–and polished to a flawless steel sheen, in some cases almost a mirror finish. The resulting play of light upon their surfaces has the effect of seeming to disembody and even liquefy the steel sculptures, as if they were luminous floating masses or shimmering topographies.
