While attending a San Francisco Giant's baseball game in the Fall I took this shot of the San Francisco - Oakland Bay Bridge. Although not as famous as the world renowned Golden Gate Bridge it's still striking in appearance in it's own right. The landmass in the center/right is known as Yerba Buena Island and the flat landmass to your left is Treasure Island, site of The Golden Gate International Exposition (1939 and 1940) Here. This shot was taken looking North/Northeast from the ramp going up to the top of the bleachers. Post-work in Picasa and Photoscape. Thanks in advance for your comments:)

Are you certain this isn't the Beige Bridge? Nice composition and presentation of the scene Bruce. Who won the game?
