I took this a couple of weeks ago on a wonderfully clear night in the city. I lucked out with the light on top of the Transamerica Pyramid Building being on. It’s only lit during Holidays and by special requests. It was lit in honor of Chinese New Year on the 23rd and 24th.

My Intervelometer was acting up and I didn’t have my glasses to see what the heck was wrong with it. I knew it was a setting, but I couldn’t read it to figure it out so I used a higher ISO to get the proper exposure. Once home with my reading glasses on I discovered it was as I thought a setting reversed.
