San Francisco traffic lights
Traffic light and no cars on the Embarcadero. The Bay Bridge bending towards Oakland through Yerba Buena Island. It all seems quiet. I don't remember what time it is. I am probably walking back from a dinner in Delancey street with an old friend. Actually the lights appear white when they should be red. Digital can't cope with such a contrast yet and the lights are overexposed beyond fixing on post. That's too bad. I could have tried a trick to color the white in red, but it would have lost authenticity. What I like here is that the lights seem more important than the bridge, but would have lost any interest without this huge metallic structure in the background. Now I am asking myself if I wanted the bridge or the lights, knowing perfectly well that it wouldn't have been worth a shot without them both.
