Night Skyline of San Francisco
Uploaded: December 11, 2007 20:02:55
I was frustrated not being able to shoot a sharp night scene on the edge of Treasure Island. I don't know how many shots I took. "Damn, I need a cable release!" Then a police man came to me and said "You are lucky. It's usually cold and windy around here. You've got beautiful lights and the moon." I guess this is a lucky one.

I agree with all the above - just extra-ordinarily beautiful, not luck, meant to be. Yes, purchase an cable release, not pricey at all. #5215017Jill Schreiner December 17, 2007
