San Francisco, Pier 24 Photography, Here, May 2011 – January 2012

This 11-part panoramic view of San Francisco was taken from the central tower of the Mark Hopkins residence, at the corner of California and Mason Streets, on Nob Hill. According to David Harris, author of Eadweard Muybridge and the Photographic Panorama of San Francisco, 1850-1880:

'The panorama took Muybridge approximately five hours to complete. He began in late morning with the v൩iew towards the south-west (now plate 10 of the panorama) and moved in a clockwise direction (proceeding th♚rough plates 11 and 1-9), moving the camera away from the sun. By mid-afternoon when he made his final view (plate 9), the sun had moved 90-degrees' (p. 118).
