Advantage: Bob.
I have powerful binoculars.

@BobHorowitz I do sometimes wonder what the neighbors think when I keep the 10 inch telescopes on the balcony.

You can check on Nextdoor. Do a keyword search.

@BobHorowitz I don’t think I can take that. Last I looked everyone hated a weird noise our building sometimes makes. (We did eventually fix it but still embarrassing.)

@midendian Yeah Nextdoor is pretty soul crushing.
Wonderful, natural filter. 🙂 Divine palette.
@BobHorowitz Love this 😍 For some reason it made me think of the glamour closeups of actresses in old films, shot with Vaseline-smeared lenses.

I could see that.
You know what it's like living in a dense city. This would be like photographing, say, Queens on a rainy day through a wet window, but add hills.
In any case, it's very different than what most people see on a daily basis. Unmistakably San Francisco.
@BobHorowitz beautiful, makes me think of Gerhard Richter

@Paperposts I admit I had to look him up... and wow, he really painted a mood with his art.
@BobHorowitz Bob. I love this. It's so moody.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: The Rainy Day
The day is cold, and dark, and dreary,
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the mouldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary.
Longfellow was such a cheery fellow. My kind of guy. 😏

@BobHorowitz i mean he wrote that while in a deep depression that a woman he was deeply in love with refused to marry him.

@eniatitova He captured it in words perfectly.
