This is the Golden Gate Bridge at night which is recognised by many people internationally. It's one of the world's most beautiful bridges and when people think of San Francisco they think of this bridge. The image is on the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco Bay Area and San Francisco, California articles. I chose to put up a picture from an evening environment since most are from daylight and this would be a great change. Thanks to Daniel Schwen for uploading such a beautiful image.
The thumbnail looks promising, but the high res picture is disappointing: very grainy and slightly overexposed. Phils22:15, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
After reading the subsequent comments, I guess I should have taken the technical difficulty of the shot into account more. However, even as a night shot, I don't consider this picture exceptional. The long exposure makes the water look very unnatural (almost like snow), and the (car?) lights further up the bridge seem too bright and clogged. Phils10:31, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
