Golden Gate Bridge at Dawn
The Golden Gate Bridge has been an icon of San Francisco since its completion in 1937 and spans 1.7 miles/2.7 kilometers connecting San Francisco to Marin County in the north. This was my first visit to San Francisco as an adult and as a photographer and was excited for all the photographic opportunities the city had to offer.
Although the bridge has been photographed millions of times like the Eiffel Tower, it is still exciting to get your own shot of an iconic location. The only downside of trying to get a shot before sunrise like this is that sunrise is around 6:30am in September so a few days of 4:45am wake up calls. However, that’s a small price to pay for such a spectacular view and the lack of crowds.
