You know, I saw the notable and thought how much the man in the bg looks like - well, you know.
Then I said to myself "naw, it can't be him." Should have remembered where the picture was taken.

Nice series - and having been in the same place at the same time, I can say that without hesitation.
Which is to say 'Rainbow' responded to my 'anyone in San Francisco want to come out and play' posting Saturday morning, and he gave me a view of the city I've never had before. The experience was a real joy, and reminds me once again what a miracle the internet really is in the way it connects people who not only would never meet without out, but would not even have the slightest idea that each other existed. Thank you Rainbow! Thank you Dgrin! And, of course, Thank you Al Gore!
I know - so where are my photos from the same time and place. Well, they'll be coming eventually. But when I finished up my work in San Francisco and my delightful afternoon with Rainbow, I flew to LA where I've been staying with my oldest son, his wife, and my new granddaughter - and first grandchild - Zoey Frances Colen. Needless to say, I have been shooting like a maniac, and somehow those images have taken precedent. In fact, I will be posting three shortly.

Thanks, Virginia!
