We were visiting our old California stomping grounds for Christmas and had one day to go to San Francisco the Monday after. It was very overcast and didn't offer great skies for photography, but I did manage a few shots.

HDR using exposures of 4, 10, and 25 seconds at f/7.1 10 minutes after sunset. Taken from Fort Point.

    Looking great, like colors in 1st and 2nd, patterns in 2nd are awesome, i remember a TV drama shot in similar neighbor hood love that architecture. I think 3rd can be improved by getting rid of space in left

    Ahh, beautiful cloudy SF lol3.gif Your sunset shot of the GG is just lovely, though. A great use of that reflective wall of cloud over the water. The sunlight poking out from underneath is the best part.

    Hope you had a great time, and good holiday!

    I love HDR shots that don't look overdone, and the first one is just breathtaking. Great job!
