Given yesterday's weather in San Francisco and the fact that I was working 
most of the day, it is not surprising that the picture of yesterday was 
taken INSIDE the Moscone Center:

Incidentally, germane to our colour vs. B&W discussions, this is a picture 
that I strongly feel works best in B&W. In colour, there are many 
distracting elements in the background. This being a convention, the stands 
are designed to attract attention; but my photograph is about Inge, not 
about the stands. Converting to B&W does a wonderful job of focusing 
attention on her.

Cheers,
Nathan
