"But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down.
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round."
(Lennon/McCartney, 1967)

The Nocturnes, along with Schnetzler Photography, will be hosting "A Night on the Hill," an exhibit of Photography by 17 local Night Photographers at Farley's on Potrero Hill, in San Francisco, from May 3 - 31, 2005. A reception for
the Artists will be held on May 22nd, from 5 to 7pm.

Farley's at Night by Manu Schnetzler

Tim Baskerville, Founder and Director of The Nocturnes, had this to say about the exhibit: "The map below only indicates some of the physical locations of the images you see in this show. As Roger, Greta, and Manu have pointed out, these photos are about an essence, a sense of place, transformed through Night Photography. We have presented many shows over the years, inviting photographers to focus their lenses in the dark, on neighborhoods as diverse as Soma, the Presidio, and the Embarcadero - and we have seen fantastic work done there, but mostly by what could be considered ‘visitors’ to those areas. This exhibit, though, marks a truly neighborhood or community response to our call for artwork. A neighborhood is a place and people, after all - living and working together toward a common good.”
