It is rather funny to have San Anselmo referred to as "Curtis-town." Yes, I've been here for 28 years but I learned long ago that one isn't considered a real local if one wasn't born here... and I say that about most of the places I've lived. Then, I do have a rather unique pleasure and distinction, since a photo I took of the seminary almost ten years ago when playing with a friends Nikon D5700 is now being used by the San Anselmo library as desktop on all the public computers. I walk in the door and there is my photo... I'd uploaded to a website and apparently the webmaster came across it. Here's a link to the photo...
The seminary found it as well and asked to use it. I licensed the photo to them for three years and it ended up on a recruiting brochure. They printed 10,000 copies and it found its was around the world... a 1.4 megapixel jpeg photo taken when I had NO idea how to set up a camera. Sometimes we're simply in the right place at the right time. In fact, I've revisited the location where this was taken and the shot no longer is possible because of trees that have obstructed the view.
