On my way to Point Reyes I passed over the Golden Gate Bridge just after sunrise. Since it is only a short distance off the main highway I decided to drive up to the famous spot overlooking the bridge and see what I could see. Everything was quite gray when I got there, but I notice a bit of light far to the east across the bay and decided to stick around to see what would develop. The light gradually worked its way westward toward the bridge and I made this photograph by stitching together several images of the bridge and the bay.
I took this photograph on the way to Point Reyes. As I waited at this viewpoint overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge the light to emerge through the fog and these two ships passed just inside the entrance to the bay.
