Golden gate bridge and Farallon islands

Golden gate bridge and farallon islands, as seen from Grizzly Peak. Long telephoto lenses compress distances. The Farallon islands are 28 miles from San Francisco. A 400mm lens compresses the distance between Golden Gate Bridge and the islands and shows them closer than they really are.

September in San Francisco, and the sunset was putting on a show, painting the clouds above the Golden Gate Bridge with orange and yellow light. Alcatraz Island is visible in the bay, along with a few boats.
