This was taken through a window at the end of the corridor where my room was on the 27th floor of the Hilton Financial District in San Francisco. I normally avoid taking through a window but in this case the choice was to miss a scene like this or take it through the window!

Well, there are some downsides to upgrading one's scanning equipment. In light of the much better resolution of the Epson I am now able to see that I actually missed focus on this shot. The picture itself is somewhat out of focus. It's not terrible. In fact, I didn't notice on the HP scan and I even have a fairly large print on the wall which doesn't look soft but I can clearly see it in the new scan. However, I can see soemthing else too. The colour is even nicer than I thought!
