The Streets are Empty!

The "Empty America" series begins in San Francisco. From the Golden Gate Bridge to Fisherman's Wharf to Lombard Street to Ghirardelli Square to the Bay Bridge - get a good look at some of San Francisco's most iconic landmarks (wiped empty of tourists and traffic).

This is really something. It's a fine example of what one can do with time lapse photography, and also features many of the locations in San Francisco where Cabrio Taxi pedicabs are often found including AT&T Park, Market Street, the Ferry Building, Golden Gate Park, Chinatown, the Marina, Fisherman's Wharf, and Ghirardelli Square. Erasing the traffic creates a eerie snapshop our city, but one where we can imagine a fine day for a pedicab ride! To learn how it was done, check out Ross Ching's erasing the streets tutorial on YouTube.
