The photo on the right was not pre-arranged. The site is Market Street and 16th,
the wine glass is left over from New Year’s Eve in San Francisco and the twigs
are the aftermath of a horrendous wind and rainstorm. The storm 
blew down a one-ton branch of the cypress tree next to my
house. The branch just missed a new car but broke the rear window.
The photo on the left represents what I believe to be an emerging trend. This wonderful flower shop on 18th was open at 9am on New Year's Day. It looks like the demand for flowers and flower arrangements is growing rapidly enough to warrant a flower shop openning at unconventional times and days.
