Now I know what to do with that 10-22mm lens.
The Spreckels Temple of Music (aka The Bandshell) is one of the few remaining pre-1906 quake architectural glories of San Francisco. The tale of its refurbishment (with some chilling anecdotes: “…on the brink of endangering throngs of passersby…”) and the bandshell’s colorful history can be found here.

You know, I should get a wide-angle lens… One of these days… It must be a different way of seeing… Nice shot… All sorts of stuff going on…
But did I ever tell you my sad, sad Bandshell story, Julie?
Well, I had a date — yes, Don actually had a date, but this was about 40 years ago — and I thought she might enjoy something a bit “different”, which turned out to be an “um-pa-pa” band who pretty much bored her to death… She never wanted to go out with me again… A sad, sad story…
