any chance you have a nighttime photo of city hall prior to 1995 (maybe you’re not that old). The lighting at the top used to be different – now they light the empty alcoves below the dome, so it just looks like someone stole the statue. The position of the spotlights used to light the pink tiled dome. I’m trying to get them to change it back, while all the construction is going on, but I can’t find a photo that demonstrates the difference. Lots of newer ones with the current lighting.
My name is Kevan Frazier (UNCA grad and former faculty meeting and I have a new book coming out soon and would love to use you picture of Lexington Ave for the entry on the mall that almost destroyed Lexington Ave. I was wondering if I might get a high res copy and rights to use the picture.
Thank you for your consideration.

One hundred feet out on the eighth pitch, with one marginal HB nut and a tiny cam nestled 30 feet below him, Caylor took a 60-foot "slab-splashing plunge," as Lester put it. He sustained numerous bruises and abrasions and a broken ankle. "I scraped off all my skin," says Caylor. "It looks like I got dragged behind a pickup." Lester set up 1300 feet of devious angling rappels, then helped Caylor to the tourist trail, where rangers gave him a pony ride to the Valley floor. "The route was horrifying," says Caylor, who has done other Yosemite scare routes, like the Bachar-Yerian. "I'll never go back."
