    I have some shots similar to those from when I took a boat under the bridge. Unfortunately they were taken 2 years ago with a crappy Finepix A330 =(

    My neice and her kids were in town, so we took 'em to Crissy Field and Fort Point, and walked on the bridge a bit. It gave me an opportunity to take some tourist-type shots. The shot from underneath the bridge was from the top of Fort Point.

    Too bad the lighting didn't cooperate: high fog and very bright. Tough meetering....

    The other touristy shot to take is the one from the Marin headlands side. It comes out like this.

    I still haven't made it out to the Headlands with my camera--it's a schlep. But I'd like to take some twilight shots there.

    There are likely thousands of people with that same shot haha. At least it's an interesting one.

    Yep, it's a true postcard shot. What's less common is to take that shot at night or at dawn/dusk. I haven't seen very many of the latter actually.

    Very true. Tourist's aren't very keen on 1. getting up early or 2. wasting their nights waiting for good light!

    As far as natives go its pretty much required of you as a photographer to have that shot in your achieves lol.
