LET'S GO GIANTS!!!



two views of San Francisco City Hall, lit orange for the Giants' National League pennant race; the other team color is provided by the black night sky

That's actually a grey night sky in the second photo, which I don't believe is an accepted team color. Jesus, that was quite a game tonight. I had to work videotaping 42nd Street Moon's "Funny Thing Happened..." this evening, so I only heard the game scores in bits. Intermission was 2-2 top of the seventh, and at the end of the short second act, it was bottom of the ninth with Giants3-Phillies2 with one out. I walked through the living areas of Embarcadero Center on the way to Muni home, with rain pelting me, my camera, and my tripod, and finally heard screams of delight from the sterile skyscrapers, and breathed a sigh of relief. Then I watched the whole damned thing that had been Tivo'd earlier. Wow.

Go farther back in the second photo, past the light from the Opera Park lamp. Either that or I didn't fiddle with the colors correctly.

They might want to consider keeping the orange forever. It really brings out the buildings' details (or maybe it's just your photo).
