@karlauerbach @mattblaze
yes, Matt's image is a very different view than the hackneyed standard Daly City postcard. Which would be better rendered with an easel and pastels than Kodachrome anyway.

Matt's use of digital B&W in the built-environment particularly is approaching a digital Ansel Adams for a new century.

@n1vux @karlauerbach I should point out that this *isn't* the Daly City that Reynolds sang about, but rather University Mound, on the other side of the city, and built up at a different time and without a single developer.

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Honestly, all this makes me desperately curious to know the story behind Broadmoor remaining unincorporated despite being an enclave within Daly City.
