I had gone out to photograph the super moon back in May but that didn’t work out quite as planned so I looked for other subjects.

Golden Gate Bridge just after sunset
Taken on an unusually clear evening just at the start of summer. Confirming what I learned last January, the Golden Gate bridge looks best after sunset, when there is still a touch of color in the sky and the towers are lit from below.

Mike vs. The Golden Gate Bridge
The Golden Gate Bridge has always frustrated me as a subject. I find it very difficult to get a picture that I don’t dislike. I was hoping to break my zero for too many to count streak of outings to shoot the bridge. Tonight’s outing was at least not a strike out. Taken from Baker Beach.
Update: Reaction has been good to this image so I’m declaring this round for myself. I’m now 1 for 15 or so with the bridge.
