Holiday Lights, San Francisco Waterfront. San Francisco, California. December 21, 2007. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell.
This photograph was made from the east side of Treasure Island, in the middle of San Francisco Bay. This is a classic location for night shots of the San Francisco skyline, and on this night I stopped as I headed back from a winter solstice event at Muir Woods knowing that the holiday lighting would make the view special.
While I was there I also shot a multi-exposure panoramic stitch of the scene:

This is perhaps my favorite San Francisco photograph. Even though the scene is well known, this image was created it a way that permits rather large prints. I currently have one that is about 3 feet wide and it could go much larger.
