Golden Gate Bridge, North Tower
North Tower of the Golden Gate Bridge. Taken after sunset.
Golden Gate Bridge at Twilight
After too many failed attempts of shooting the Golden Gate Bridge, I can tell you the secret. On a clear day, you want to wait till sun has set and the towers are lit. Twilight is the perfect time. You want a little color in the sky. This shot is a little later than ideal. It’s taken from the second turn out on Cozumel road which goes up into the Marin Headlands.
Roosevelt Tamale Parlor
Roosevelt Tamale Parlor Neon Sign
Looking over my past few posts, I’m seeing perhaps I’m a little too enamored with signs but here’s another one. This time from Roosevelt Tamale Parlor in the Mission District of San Francisco.
Abandoned Building, Treasure Island
Treasure Island has almost eerie quality among its abandoned buildings. It’s an odd feeling seeing abandoned and decaying buildings with million dollar views.
Doggie Diner Dachshunds
The Doggie Diners were local a San Francisco restaurant chain. I saw these three heads parked on Treasure Island and had to stop and take a picture of them.

Golden Gate Bridge at Twilight
The North Tower of the Golden Gate bridge has become one my favorite photographic subjects. This shot is from Battery Spencer.
Transamerica Pyramid through Golden Gate Bridge
Classic shot of Transamerica Pyramid framed by the Golden Gate Bridge
I recently listened to a great episode of 99% Invisible about the opposition to Transamerica Pyramid when it was proposed.
Hills Brothers Coffee Building
Another shot from my super moon outing. I have to be partial to the Hills Brother’s Coffee building since its now the home of Wharton San Francisco. In my time at Wharton, the school was a few blocks away in the Folger’s building. I recently attended an event at the new campus and it’s a really beautiful facility.
