🎬 x 📷 Watching "Vertigo" (1958) @ #TCM, a favorite #Hitchcock movie because it's set in #SanFrancisco, my home for 20 years.
In one scene, #JimmyStewart follows #KimNovak to the #MissionDolores cemetery and the grave of "Carlotta Valdes."
When I assisted the Directors @ "The Celluloid Closet," our offices were across the street, and I lived a block away on Guerrero. #TheMission.
In 1992, I shot this rose in that tiny cemetery, 35 years after Hitchcock filmed there.

📷 Palm (detail), 347 Dolores Street, #TheMission #SanFrancisco, 1994.
The #DatePalms in front of #NotreDamePlaza (across from #MissionDolores at 16th Street), date to about 1910 when the Convent School was rebuilt after the 1906 Earthquake. They are among the City's protected "Landmark Trees."
