Gratitude

Gallery: Man & NaturePosted November 27, 2013175 views7 comments

I feel incredibly grateful to live in such a beautiful part of the world. It's right up there with friends and family, good health and so many other blessings. May you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and sense of gratitude as well.

Golden Gate bridge, taken the other night. Canon 5d, Mk3, f/16, 1/100 sec., 220 mm, ISO 2500 (I used a tripod but think I had the ISO this high in a prior photo of a bird and forgot to change it!)

Comments and critiques welcome.

Hi Kathy, you are presenting excellently balanced photo in superb sunset light & excellent colors. The composition with the bridge crossing lower half of the frame is perfect. Very well done.

A lovely scene, not much detail needed and a pretty palette. The high ISO didn't hurt you at all!

S.F. is one of the most beautiful cities in the world.......I love your view of the Golden Gate. Beautiful dramatic and colotful sky. The High iso didn't hurt the image at all.

I really like this one, Kathy. The only very minor item is a spot just left of the right tower. Might be a low flying aircraft in the BG just above the bridge road bed.
This surely would make a nice print of this famous scene. Nicely seen and captured.

Excellent exposing for the sky has nicely captured the colors of the sunset and made a good silhouette of the bridge. Well done Kathy.
