How I Spent My Day
I stood on Potrero Hill for nearly six hours today, waiting for this shot. A film crew was in town, shooting a TV pilot for a potential series called Trauma, and word was out that there would be a big explosion on Hwy. 280 sometime this afternoon. The window was supposed to be between 1:00 and 4:00, but it actually happened at just a few minutes before 6:00. Along with another dozen other photographers and videographers or so, I was able to capture this shot after hours of waiting.
Then I was featured on one of the local TV news shows (KRON 4), and misquoted by the local paper. Sheesh.

That's a cool photo. Looks like the Devil himself came to SF.
Pretty dramatic!
Awesome! Did you plug PaaL on TV?
;-)
It blowed up real good!
Wow, I know that view. My great aunt lives on Potrero Hill. Incredible work getting that shot!

Thank you all, I think it was worth the standing arund waiting all day for the shots I was able to get.
Tom, no, sorry, I didn't have the presence of mind to mention Pixels to any of the reporters (also, I'm kind of modest, shy and retiring, as I'm sure you've noticed).
aimai, I wonder if your great aunt was able to see that from her house? I was standing on Texas Street just below 19th when I took it.
