In the shadow of the Bridge

A lighter-than-usual containership MS ""Cosco Qingdao" is leaving San Francisco Bay, on her voyage across the Pacific Ocean to Fuzhou, Fujian Province, China - just across the strait from the Northern tip of Taiwan.

 

This image was taken in the early morning, when the sun forms a shadow of the Golden Gate Bridge looking like a ribbon on the water's surface.

 

She was build in 1997 and cruises at a speed of around 15 to 20 knots, her estimated arrival in China is 12 days after leaving the Golden Gate.
