Light and shade on Washington Street, San Francisco; a cable car begins its steep descent. Exposed with Canon EOS 3, f2.8 200mm lens on Ektachrome Elite 100 (EB3), approximate exposure f11 at 1\/500 second.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On the afternoon of August 21, 2009, I worked San Francisco\u2019s famous hills aiming to make images of Muni\u2019s cable cars, arguably one of America\u2019s most pictured railway operations. I set the exposure manually using the camera\u2019s spot meter to base my judgment. I sample the sky and street and aimed for texture in the highlight areas, allowing the shadows to go dark. My choice of film was Kodak Ektachrome Elite 100 (EB3) which offered an ideal color-balance for such a silhouette.
