Though I normally don’t post two photos from the same location on back-to-back days, this is a rare exception. Yesterday I made a photo looking in the opposite direction from this same position. On my way back through the intersection at night, I decided to see how the backdrop worked at that hour. It didn’t, but my gear was out and looking north on Canal is a good thing to do. The arc of this overhang against the buildings works in nice contrast against the architecture. I’ve seen a couple of photographers shooting it in the past, and it would work in an abstract way in the daylight. I might go back to get that one.
One other note – I’m always surprised that police don’t hack locks off of bicycles chained to street signs.
