Taken on another walk around San Francisco, this one on July 10, 2005. I wandered from the theatre district down to SBC Park, then along the waterfront to near the Ferry Building, and finally back up past Union Square.

I took this picture a couple weeks ago on a Sunday afternoon while Patty (my wife) was playing in the pit for Les Miserables. It was a sunny day in most of San Francisco, but the fog line was just inside the bridge.

This picture has undoubtedly been taken thousands (tens of thousands?) of times – go to Fort Point and go to the end of the breakwater at the right side of the fort and there is a small area just to the right of a fence. So, it is not an original but I still like it.

I did not notice the bird nicely centered in the upper section of the bridge when I took the photo. This is slightly ironic since I had tried to time several shots to intentionally include seagulls but had failed miserably.
