I lived in San Francisco for 8 years. My favorite city in the continental United States. The bridge is one of those icons that everyone has a photo of. You’ve managed it from a new and awe inspiring, angle. Love it!
The bridge (and the entire city) is just so photogenic. Very nice crisp perspective on the iconic bridge. Still recognize it even from that little teeny piece.
Thank you, Lyle. This shot is pretty much the way I saw it. Generally, if a photo needs editing I’d rather take a pass than work on it; I do take a lot of shots though 🙂
Taking a lot of shots certainly improves my odds! Sometimes I wish I could see potential images sooner. I was actually curious whether you saw this image in your mind right away or did you have to study it for awhile or take a number of shots to get there.
No, it didn’t involve any forethought; I just looked up as I was walking, took two shots and kept walking. (Had I been alone, I probably would have spent a lot more time taking many more shots at various angles.)
You did it again. What gorgeous light, color and proportions.

I like the perspective and the colors contrast very nicely.
It also has a certain amount of abstraction to it which I think very befitting.

The colours and angles really do it for me. Did you see that right away or have to work it a bit?

Two color shots can be very cool. You get good contrasts between the two colors. It was nice that you had a nice clear blue sky.

I just took a photo of the Golden Gate Bridge, too! But, of course it was foggy.
