San Francisco Scenery

 

If you drive halfway across the San Francisco Bay Bridge, you can exit at Treasure Island where there are spectacular views back towards San Francisco.
The Bridge continues on to Oakland after crossing the island.  The second part of the bridge looks a lot different than the first part.  This section is currently being replaced by a new suspension bridge, it will take a few years...  BTW, Berlynn took this spectacular picture.
By using a polarizing filter, you can make the clouds "pop" out of the sky - but then you also lose the sparkle on the waves.  Sometimes, the sparkle is more important than the clouds.
The sailboat continues on into the Bay, towards the more well known Golden Gate Bridge.
