Here's a shot of the San Francisco side of the Bay Bridge from SBC Park one night earlier this year. It is a bit blurry because I didn't have a tripod. I did my best to stay steady. It is from my FZ15 with shutter speed 1/4 second, f2.8, and ISO 200.
Are you kidding Rex? Your composition looks like post card material! I only WISH I could develop an eye like that!
Next time you go to the GG bridge, (assuming you cross over to the Marin/North side, take the first exit and head towards the left into the Marin Headlands. You drive up the mountain on a really steep road for 1/2 mi. and then park down. Then, you take a path through a historical military base and make your way up to this prime spot for photos. It's really windy up there, so don't let your stuff get blown away. (It's terrible for taking photos of people because of this)
This weekends shoot took me to Joppa Texas. The center of town was hard to find. I finally found it after I had determined that I had driven by it 3 times already. It consisted of a Church on a hill! Nothing else.
Here are a couple of bridges that were acclaimed as the Joppa Bridges. I also couldn't help but to include a small bridge that happened to have a train using it.
