Hey, lets step in the time machine and travel back 45 years. There is nothing wrong with your computer -- no adjustment is necessary...
I found this print in the window of a memorabilia store on Pier39.
Yes indeed -- back in the '60's I owned an "Op Deck" and it kept me busy, if not enlightened for hours... It had a clear overlay print that would interact in the most mystical of ways with whatever far-out pattern was below.

As far as touristy scenes representative of San Francisco, the Carousel at Pier39 has a fine collection of familiar scenes around it's top perimeter. This panel is of the Transamerica Building from the fishing pier at the foot of Broadway.

Everything is still closed and the tourists are mostly still in bed when I do my snooping around -- it's really the best time to see Pier39. They pull heavy plastic curtains around the carousel at night to protect against the salty fog that can quickly erode metal.

Look south -- yes, right into the sun -- down towards Fisherman's Wharf...

Look west -- zoom that lens -- it's a Kodak moment...

Love this eclectic series of S.F. photos. The carousel banister and the Kodak moment are terrific too. Am I gushing too much??? I look forward to seeing what you post everyday.
