Wow, this is perhaps the most mesmerizing skyline photo I've seen of the city! Do you have more like it?

Yes I have a couple! My Instagram is www.instagram.com/huangcolin in case you are interested!

“Golden City”? I’ve never once heard that as a nickname for San Francisco. Either way, a nice shot.

Looks expensive. I’m pretty sure my credit card got charged just for looking at the picture.

Gotta pay to play.

This shot is about six months old, I can tell by looking at 100, 400 and 500 Folsom which are all nearly topped out now.

You would be correct sir. I took this on June 8th, 2017 at 6:47 PM.

Damn, that's some excellent color grading.

I like this because the Salesforce Tower, although obviously taller than the others, is more of a central point in a landscape that it is part of, instead of disrupting it. If that makes sense.
The salesforce tower gets a lot of flack for sure.
I've never heard people whine about a skyline changing as much as here, but it kind of is a big dildo in an off place that well and awkwardly represents unwanted tech gentrification as it broke a decades-old tallest building record.
And it's big, if it didn't have the art piece I might not exactly enjoy its presence everywhere myself.
I’ve been on top of the Salesforce Tower, it’s beautiful, inside and out. It was the best experience ever!
I'm seeing the Salesforce tower in a lot of media now, like in the new Carmen Sandiego series on Netflix and on the San Fransokyo level in Kingdom Hears 3
