Description
Sorry about the picture size, but it's a long bridge! Also, this is an experiment in panorama-making (orginally 4 pictures and a whopping 12000x2500 pixels). I also have dual monitors, so it makes good wallpaper! Taken with a Nikon CoolPix 8800.
I just got back from San Francisco yesterday (8th Jan). Unfortunately, the weather wasn't very good for this type of picture, really - wet and windy most of the time. Still I managed to get a couple of good ones, after having nearly expired climbing up to Coit Tower.
For all the great people we met during our stay, particularly the staff and customers of Foleys. Thanks, all!
P.S. Corrected the speeling Mistook now. Doh! that's the trouble with jetlag... sorry 'bout that.

the thumb just doesn't do this justice... maybe if you have (pan) in the title... excellent stiching & view... tough lighting... hard to up the contrast without losing your blues :]

Thanks for the comments and advice, Cynlee. Title changed! When I think about it, the pictures were taken from about two, maybe two-and-a-half miles away, so contrast was always going to be an issue - as you surmised, I have pushed it as far as I can, really. I had to fiddle with the colour curves to counter the effect of pushing the contrast.
