More SF Night Photography


So, yes, it's been awhile since I've posted! Been busy and blogging just fell by the roadside. In addition to some travel to the East Coast, (images soon) and meeting my first grand-daughter for the first time, have been shooting for a publication called 86° and it's been a lot of fun in addition to assignments for my my irregular regulars like the Conrad Foundation's Innovation Summit, Pankow Builders, the Full Circle Fund, & Maverick Networks to name a few.

This photo was made following an assignment for a Cornell University Alumni event at the San Francisco Chapter of the American Institute of Architects last May. I was packing the gear into the car and looking around, was impressed by the graphic striping on the concrete floor, the mix of mercury vapor & fluorescent lighting, the strong numeral on the wall enhanced by the blackness of the elevator doors and the linear convergence of the support columns with the ventilation ducting conflicting with the fading perspective of the lines on the floor. The arrow points to a way out of the sense of foreboding and loneliness the scene presents.


Sorry about the watermark, but being the internet, it's the only way to somewhat still claim and protect your work as screen resolution improves on the latest innovations from our tablet/smartphone makers while social media platforms claim ownership of what's posted on their sites and feel entitled to co-opt it for their own purposes if they so desire.

Cheers!
