San Francisco Behind Bars: Alcatraz and Golden Gate Bridge at Sunset

Alcatraz Seen Through the Golden Gate Bridge – San Francisco, California

San Francisco is no stranger to photography icons. As you drive across the Golden Gate Bridge it’s quite easy to see Alcatraz sitting in the middle of the entry to the San Francisco Bay, but its not as easy to see both Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge in clean alignment. One such low angle view does exist and its quite fun to see Alcatraz of all places behind bars… I mean the cables of the Golden Gate Bridge. Insert great sunset light, a sailboat and a pelican and it rounds the scene out to a rather fun photo.
