Any shot of the Golden Gate Bridge is awesome to those who do not live there, like me.

This one is of particular interest due to fine composition, getting the piers centered on each other.

I the Ruth I've done a good job spreading him around and I always love the places you can go... where you don't get the traditional view of famous structures

I thought it was cute too! you can do the "thanks" without the llama too

The Golden Gate is such a famous bridge that it is fun to see what else can be found!!

LOL, I haven't done that...but I did ride my bike decades ago Maybe on our next trip - we're only about three hours away now and I've got two nieces who are going to school in the City so we'll be down more often (this was our second trip in the two years we're been up here...)

Very nice Ruth. I love this bridge.

Would it have been possible to take the picture so that the bridge was more to the right? The tree on the right would still form a framing function, and the bridge would then be on the right third line. Not sure if it will work in the setting, but if so is might create a BLAST of an image.

kayaksailor In reply to WayneBenedet [2010-04-03 02:46:16 +0000 UTC]

I was attempting to shoot straight down the towers, that was uppermost in my thoughts so I don't think I could have moved more than a few steps to the left due to plants and the edge of the bluffs...but I do plan to go again (I now live only about 3 hours away and I have two nieces going to school in the City) so I will keep your thought in mind for the next trip!!

It is a very picturesque bridge It makes almost any photo of it wonderful

I understand the dilemma, that is why I asked.

kayaksailor In reply to WayneBenedet [2010-04-03 03:18:58 +0000 UTC]

But you are right, I should have shifted the edge of the frame a slight bit (like remembering the 'rule of thirds' )

Excellent shot! I have only one question - how the hell did you get there on a non-foggy day? Practically every time I'm in SF you can't even see the tops of the towers.

Do you mean like this? [link] LOL!!! You just have to go some other time than summer

To be honest we'd hoped for a little something in the cloud department - the empty sky was kind of boring
