Description

I found this 40 year old photo of the Golden Gate Bridge and scanned it. It is not that sharp because of all of the fog but it is a view of the bridge that most people do not see. The photo was taken from the Pacific Ocean side. It will zoom. Thank you to all that faved my sand sculpture postings. Two of them made the Art Charts at Renderosity, on the list of favorite images Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated. Dana

Just beautiful Dana! I love graininess of old photos and it really captures all the twists and curves of the bridge, and the foreground is so rich :)

The foto may be old, but it gives a wonderful effect. That's the one view I've never seen--great shot and terrific perspective!!

Great shot Dana. It looks fantastic because of the foggy atmosphere. You are looking north, so if you make a left turn on the other end of the bridge you would be heading towards Mill Valley, am I correct? And a fantastic scan by the way.

Classic San Francisco weather. An outstanding POV and one I have not seen even though I lived there for four years.

I know that photo very well. And I've seen the bridge from this vantage point. And you are making me home sick. Sigh.... A right turn at the far end will bring you to the artist colony of Sausalito. Keep up the good work! :-)

WE always stop in Sausalito - my wife loves the shops on the waterfront.
