This is nice....how I miss the fog... I lived in SF for 50 years before I moved down south.

its a great shot. What I like is the sharpness and capture of the light. The only thing that bothers me is that the two street lights are so blown out. It would have been nice if the Bridge directors could have turned them down for your shot!!!! Maybe if you could have taken the shot a few minutes earlier the lighting could have been more balanced. Just my thought. Otherwise a great shot and a definite winner!

  Thank you for your feedback Roger...especially coming from someone who saw that bridge for 50 years!
I am learning (albiet very slowly) about photoshop. And maybe coming up one of my instructors this summer could tell me how to fix that if it is a possibility

  I probably crossed that bridge 10,000 times in my life....I called it the million dollar ride and view for $4.00.

Everytime I crossed that bridge, whether by foot, car or bicycle, I saw something new and different, just as you did.

I would try cloning something over the small area that is blown out...but the picture is a nice one just the way it is! I miss my bridge!
