Taken this evening during blue hour after sunset at Alamo Square in San Francisco. Yes, I've taken this shot plenty of times before, but it doesn't really get old for me. It was a warm, clear night and I love how you can see the downtown skyline really clearly here.
Fyi, this is not SOOC. I made a few tweaks in Lightroom: crop, fill light, punch, graduated filter, lens profile correction, camera profile: landscape. Just for kicks, I'm posting the SOOC in the first comment... let me know what you think.

We just arrived in Goslar, a town in Harz region of Germany. Even though I went to University there years ago I never really visited Goslar before. So I didn't knew what a lovely small town it is.
In a small shop of artful stuff and things I accidentally eavesdropped on a conversation between the shop owner and her father who happened to come across an old Nikon F2 and told her about it. He sounded so happy and joyful that I had to show him my F2 Photomic and we had a wonderful conversation about all the good stuff Nikon had crafted back in the days.
William Lloyd Garrison, abolitionist editor and orator, is memorialized in a bronze statue on the Commonwealth Avenue Mall in Boston's Back Bay. The statue, by sculptor Olin L. Warner, was dedicated in 1885.
Garrison was born in Newburyport, Massachusetts, in 1805, where a statue has also been erected to honor him. A newspaper editor by trade, he joined the abolitionist movement at the age of 25. Within a few years he founded a newspaper, The Liberator, which he ran from Boston for 35 years.
Garrison was an active and vocal anti-slavery figure, and a proponent of "immediate and complete" emancipation of all slaves. He was active in many anti-slavery groups, and in 1833 he helped to establish the American Anti-Slavery Society, at Boston's African Meeting House. A notorious figure (he once burned a copy of the Constitution at an anti-slavery rally), he was a constant target of threats from pro-slavery organizations, and his speeches (at sites such as Boston's Faneuil Hall) often attracted mobs.

Trying to take advantage of the evening light before it got too dark for handheld shots, I came across the Commonwealth Avenue mall. The sun shining though the leaves made it such an interesting scene. While sometimes I try to avoid people in my shots and often get frustrated at them, I was again glad to have these two ladies walk by when they did :)
