Lemon Lime

During my first visit to San Francisco a little over ten years ago (my only visit, actually, prior to moving here), I photographed this building and was so thrilled to have stumbled upon it at the time. The colours at that time were bright and vibrant, and finding such a cleverly painted house both excited me and gave me a chuckle.

Every now and then, when I'm in the area, I stop by and photograph it, more for personal documentation, I guess, and almost without fail, there is a car parked immediately in front. The vibrance in the colour has faded over the years, but the bright, direct sunlight helps to intensify it a bit. (An increase in the saturation doesn't hurt too much either... heh-heh.)
