Description


San Diegan's sometimes refer to the skyline as the "tool box" because some of the buildings resemble tools. Here from the left you can see a Phillips Screwdriver(builiding with pointed top) - a set of socket wrenches outlined in grean and red and a couple of regular screwdrivers in the foreground. I wasn't going to post this shot because of the huge graininess but the more I looked at it the more I liked it. ISO was pushed to 3200, f1.8 at 1/6th of a second using my rolled up jacket and car roof as a tripod. Enjoy

I love this image! That skyline looks incredibly futuristic, at least at night. The colors are wonderful and magical. The lights, especially on the tops of the buildings are either strangely ethereal or colorful in a carnival sort of way and I can even see implications of circus tents. What really strikes me is how this DOES look rather toolbox-ish, but at the same time super futuristic; those sloped rooflines and such add such excitement to this. The water and the reflections on the water are superb and deliciously rich. And I have to say (in keeping with the futuristic theme) some of these buildings look like something out of Star Trek: something Dr. McCoy would have in his medical bag. I definitely see a medical tricorder's detachable sensor--on the left. It has night light on top too! There are wonders in this photograph and I'm incredlby happy to see it.
