a) Yes, I can imagine, and
b) Wow. Nice.
The ones that zip back and forth across Lombard Street at rooftop
height, I haven't even tripped the shutter on yet -- I haven't
managed to get them in focus, and they move so quickly that it
took a few passes before I saw them clearly enough to tell what
they were. (I wonder whether climbing up on the roof, instead of
leaning out a 3rd-floor window, will make shooting them harder
or easier.
