In Little Italy.

An interesting dietary dilemma, spotted in San Francisco.

G1, kit lens @45mm, 1/2000, f/5.6, ISO 320.

A fine mural.

This gorgeous mural is in San Francisco’s Little Italy.

G1, kit lens @14mm, 1/1250, f/5. ISO 320.

The original, however, cannot be approached at the right angle. It’s high up, the traffic prohibits safe access and it was in shade the day I snapped it.

Here’s the original snap:

This is where the Photoshop technique I illustrated here for correcting verticals really shines.

Since 1895.

Spotted in Little Italy, San Francisco.

G1, kit lens @14mm. 1/100, f/5.6, ISO320.

Stone’s throw from SF City Hall.

G3, kit lens @24mm, 1/500, f/9, ISO320.

Pink, pink, pink!

From that most photographically fecund of locations, wonderful 24th Street in San Francisco.

G3, kit lens @ 18mm, 1/1250, f/4, ISO 1600.

I’m finding that the two stop gain the G3’s sensor offers over the G1’s, in terms of freedom from noise, has me regularly cranking the ISO up from my usual street-snapper 320 to 1600 when on the shady side of the street, thus cutting down on motion blur. I simply have the two C1 and C2 settings on the handy top dial set for each ISO, making a change the matter of a moment, with no need to peer at hard to read LCD screens.
