From the same day as the panorama, we were in Union Square.

    I like your take on the street photography. Interesting use of lines and curves. There was a photo challenge here not that long ago on the same subject. These would have made a nice entry.

    I don't recognize the second photo. Where was that taken? I like the composition and colors there.

    Dave, Thanks. Trying to live to up the people around me ;).

    The second photo was in the sutter / stockton parking garage. I have a few dozen photos from here, taken from the 12th floor, I have to post process them.

    I've seen a lot of great pictures from that garage, but I've never been there. I will have to put that on my list. Thanks for the info.

    Any idea what is going on this weekend?

    Nothing I am aware of Dave. My alien bee arrives tomorrow. Finally I moved to a place with more space, so I hope to practice more :) [starting this weekend]

    The current photo challenge here is "portrait". I hope to see you put the new setup to good use and enter something in the challenge.

    Let me know how the new stuff works.

    I like that one a lot. Great contrast...might be cool in B/W.
