Foggy Sunset, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco

If you head up Marine Drive in Golden Gate Park, past Crissy field and Fort Mason, you’ll find this beautiful spot with a fantastic view of the Golden Gate Bridge. I stopped here Saturday evening just before sunset and watched the fog roll in over the Golden Gate Bridge. It was quite chilly here, with at least a 15 degree (F) drop in temperature from the east side of San Francisco.

The fog really subdued the effect of the sunset in the sky but watching it drift silently over the bridge and listening to the sounds of the water along the shore was quite peaceful. My timing was even lucky enough to capture the freighter passing under the bridge and the bird walking along the beach.
