I processed this photo because my fiance said that even though she liked the other version of the Walton Lighthouse, the tilted horizon bothered her. So this one is for her.

This was my vacation. I've taken the week off from work and I journeyed up to San Francisco by myself to sit around and shoot the Palace of Fine Arts. It's a place I always wanted to shoot, but never got around to it. I waited all day for the sun to set and the lights to come on. I did have a slight problem though. It was so cold that moisture was building on (and I think inside) my lens. A lot of the later shots have this odd glow about them. Guess I have to keep the lens warm. Live and learn.
