Personal Photos: Alcatraz (San Francisco, CA)

As a longtime Bay Area resident, I’ve gone out to the Alcatraz island many times. This was the first time I had gone on the night tour though, which I had been hoping to do for quite some time. In addition to awesome night photos (yay!), the infirmary and surgery were open for viewing. There is something about this place, the history, the people housed here, the dilapidated site itself – that gives me the chills and some kind of reverence.
