We'll need more rain, though, to keep this city clean! I don’t know about the grime on the signs but the sidewalks smell a bit cleaner. We’ll need more rain, though, to keep this city clean!

Maybe i'll go roam around there tomorrow. I’m curious if the recent rain has cleaned the grit off some of the signs. Maybe i’ll go roam around there tomorrow.

And yes, a book would be a very good idea. Laurel, then we must band forces to document as much as we can. And yes, a book would be a very good idea.

Also many places in the TL have been registered as historic landmarks so perhaps that will keep the condo builders at bay.

Probably influenced my love of noir. I see this image as something from an old movie. I’m loving very hard b&w photos lately. Probably influenced my love of noir.

Now you know I don't have any of those things you mention... so no excuses, go out there and take a photo in the TL. You'll be fine.

This is a real lesson in seeing... I've never noticed the tall skinny sign above, or the Scenic Drive sign... To shoot that I'll probably need a wider lens and maybe a more flexible neck... About as deep in the T.L. as I'd want to go with a pricey camera... Super…

I'm also a huge fan of the older relics seen around SF, especially signage like on beauty parlors. Anything from the 20's thru 50's strikes me deeply, and I also live with the sad fear that one day these will be replaced. A book is due! Love this angle and this group of signs!

The past is slowly being eaten up by what everyone wants for the future. It's great that we are all able to capture these remnants of the past before they disappear completely. Beautiful photo, Julie. :) Sadly, the neon signs may very well disappear over the course of the next ten years or so. The past is slowly being eaten up by what everyone wants for the future.
