An unusual noise woke me up at 6:45. It was my alarm. Then I noticed another unusual noise... a Sikorsky S-64 Skycrane hauling off the second half of the Bartle Hall tower-topper about 3 hours before I thought it was going to happen. I ran to my lens cupboard, decided on the K135/2.5 and snagged a few shots, the best of which I believe you are seeing right here.
Lots of selfies were happening in the streetcar. I caught this one from outside. The guy in the foreground approved. :-)
