There are countless stories to tell in San Francisco, but sometimes a picture says so much more that mere words. Each Tuesday, we present to you our new feature, 7 Reason. (Our sister site LAist does the same thing, which we found too inspiring to resist.) Much like Photo du Jour highlighting a nifty image shot by readers, 7 Reasons will feature photos from the SFist pool on Flickr showcasing the uniqueness of San Francisco. Here are 7 reason why SF is, for lack of a better word, rad.

Enjoy.
