"When the Lights go Down in the City..."

Posted by Don Smith (California, United States) on 9 May 2009 in Landscape & Rural.

I know you are all humming the famous Journey song in your mind (at least those of you old enough to remember). I certainly was when I photographed this scene of downtown San Francisco at dusk from high above in the Berkley Hills with a long telephoto lens. However with this image, the lights were actually turning on.

Currently I am in Yosemite teaching a workshop with my partner Gary Hart. It has been a long month of travel and I am looking forward to being home with my family. My next workshop is a couple weeks away in northern California and the Mendocino coastline. Please e-mail me if you are interested as there are still some spots available.
