A couple, Dave and Penelope, stand together on a hotel balcony in an intimate embrace as dusk settles over San Francisco in January 2008. The man is kissing the woman's head while she leans back against him, both gazing out over the cityscape below. The purple and blue twilight sky is dramatic with layered clouds, creating a moody atmospheric backdrop. Below them, a wide urban boulevard with sparse traffic runs past mid-century modern buildings, including a distinctive high-rise hotel and what appears to be a civic or institutional building. The image was shot with a Canon 5D using a 24-70mm f/2.8L lens, though the low-light conditions and available-light exposure have resulted in underexposure of the foreground subjects.
