Golden Gate

I know this is probably one of the most common locations to shoot the GG, but I just couldn't pass up the perfectly placed sailboat. I flew out to a conference a day early to head up to the Marin Headlands to shoot the Golden Gate and SF at sunrise. Unfortunately, God had other plans and the heavens opened up at about 4 a.m. After wasting time around the MOMA and Fisherman's Wharf I decided to walk to the bridge from the Wharf and in hopes that the clouds would break. This was taken in mid-afternoon.

Nice view of our icon!
Sorry the weather didn't cooperate better. Hope you can make it out again sometime.

Nice color Eric. The placement of the boat adds to the scene.
