Wordless Saturday? No? Well how about Bay Bridge at Night then…

On the way back from Napa, I decided to stop at Treasure Island for a few shots of the SF Skyline.  I saw these views though the trees on my drive over to the viewing area and decided to try to grab a few shots.  These are not my best work, but I was trying to shoot and look out for the authorities since I was parked in a no parking zone, and walking along a dark twisty road where and climbing over guard rails.  I’ll go back one evening and try for better shots, but wanted to share these for today.

I liked the glow on the water and the different colors of the lights along the span in this shot.

Exposure: f/11 at 30s, ISO 100 – Sigma 18-50mm@38mm

 

I liked this one in black and white, it captures the form and lights instead of the distractions of the colors.

Exposure: f/22 at 20s, ISO 100 – Sigma 18-50mm@43mm

 

I wanted a long exposure of the traffic coming out ot the tunnel on the say to San Francisco.  I really like the red, white, and blue colors of the lights in this.  I was so worried about the cops pulling up and driving me off that I didn’t realize that the camea saw some of the lights as blue!

Exposure: f/11@10s, ISO 100 – Sigma 18-50mm@50mm
