The story behind the image
San Francisco in California is full of beautiful, almost magical, places. This photo, for example, shows the Transamerica Pyramid from what must be the best spot to capture the building without any electrical wires obstructing the sky – the viewing platform at 1233 Montgomery Street.
Sadly, the sky was covered in clouds, so the image lacks the glitz to be a real eye-catcher but it still can look good when used right.
San Francisco? I just love it.
