Passages

Embarcadero, San Francisco, CA

Since I have been advocating processing, this is VERY processed. First, it was shot with a 5400 modified to shoot IR. Second, it was turned to monochrome using channel swapper, tweaked heavily using curves, and then a quad tone was applied. Also, it was cropped and Perspective distortion was removed.

Yes, there is a fence in the back (I promise to do another fence image) but the statue is what appealed to me. It is called passages, and was first exhibited at Burning Man. It was done by two local artists, and is not a permanent installation here. For those who don't know the area, you are seeing Yurba Buena Island and half of the Oakland/Bay Bridge in the background.
