Last night, two separate photographers taking pictures from separate locations atop Bernal Hill noticed the very same thing: The sun had set behind Twin Peaks, creating the illusion that Sutro Tower was poised to blast-off into space (which, as we all know, it really wants to do anyway.)
Daniel Cohen took the photo above and posted it on the Instagram after noting that “Sutro Tower [is] ready for liftoff tonight.” A few moments earlier, @MrRoodog snapped the shot below, asking: “Is that the Sutro rocket launch?”


Dan is the man for photography! He has an amazing eye and the lens just loves him!!
