Golden Gatepost

Golden Gatepost by John
I took a little trip across the Golden Gate Bridge for a late afternoon hike around the Marin Headlands. On the way up I was lucky enough to see a rainbow over the Golden Gate Bridge and the San Francisco Bay. The hike itself was awesome, including some post-sunset deer encounters (no pictures), and I stopped to shoot the Golden Gate Bridge in all its glory on the way back.

I typically upload in small sets - don't just look at the latest one in my photostream as you might be missing something you'll like more.... and your comments are ALWAYS welcome :)

Wow, that is a stunner! You have amazing exposure here. Was it hard to get both the foreground so perfect, with the city in that back so well exposed? I think a pic like this would have taken me 50 shots LOL.

Thank you Adam. During the day it's kinda hard to see why they named it as they did, but seen at night it's bloody obvious :)
Thank you Sue - It's only an hour away from us but to get to it means driving through the heart of San Francisco, so I really have to want to go!!
Thank you Kelly. This shot was a pleasingly successful test of one of the D5000's features. It has a "night landscape" mode, which based on these shots works really well. :) I LOVE this camera :)
