This picture really does capture a nice moment, it seems it might look more defined if edited into a panoramic picture to concentrate more on the mist over the bridge and sailboat, just a though, thanks for the opportunity.

A nice looking shot with some great perspective and the mist is really neat looking. The sailboat kind of detracts from the overall picture though. I find my eye drawn toward it rather than the bridge and hills where I want to focus.

Hi Jina,this is a very nice shot,your right the mist drifting over the Golden Gate Bridge is really neat. The sailboat really adds a focal point,the picture is well balanced. Might I suggest a little cropping down to the top of the first fog bank. Good Job!

Very kewl shot, Jina. :) I like the whisps of clouding moving across that brilliant blue sky, casting purplish tones over the span of the red-toned Golden Gate Bridge. The movement of water adds texture to the piece, in contrast to the smooth sky. The white sailboat was a nice touch to capture offset, faring the tides. Your midline focus of the rolling mountains in the backdrop is a nice transitioning of top to bottom with its shading to reflect the lighting of the day. This would make for a rich piece with the proper matting and framing.

    Thanks, I am looking for a frame. I appreciate the comments. They are so helpful. I really enjoy photography

This is another really cool photograph. The sailboat really pops out to the viewer. It would be nice to see this cropped down a bit to eliminate some of the dead water space toward the bottom and to maybe help show off the boat more. Also, it would look a tad more professional if the horizon were level by rotating the picture to line up the water's edge against the rocks under the bridge so that they are horizontal... or by making the tallest portion of the bridge vertical. I really like this scene and think it could be used as a stock photo for travel.

Ahh San Fran... Beautiful picture, I think it's a little to broad though. There's no real focal point thay draws your attention to it. Still a very nice picture.

A very nice shot - I love the sky in this picture and the way the mist is coming in - it's a shame it partially covers the vertical structure of the bridge as that would have made a nice contrasting accent but is somewhat covered up. Saying that, it's still a lovely picture - well done.

    Thank-you. It was such a beautiful picture. I took several shots and I will have to back and see if I have one like you have suggested

Very nice - I like the look of the mist - and can imagine how it must have caught your eye with the promise of a great capture - the boat adds interest, but maybe a little tighter focus with a little less water would have given it more impact.

this is a great picture. the clouds are a great thing to have captured. it all seems peaceful, and the sailboat adds to the peaceful feeling. the whole picture has a nice touch to it.
