About the Book
These photos are unnerving because the street has been used as the horizon, that is, the shots were aligned as if the road were level, so that San Francisco's old Victorian houses seem to lean at precarious angles like the Tower of Pisa. To create this series, Rendell photographed over 100 buildings on San Francisco's steepest streets in July 2006. The author recommends a first read through with Dramamine® at the ready.
