Most photos of the Golden Gate Bridge are taken from the Marin Headlands looking east toward San Francisco. There are other vantage points for photographing it. I like this view from Fort Baker. It shows historic Fort Point near the south tower of the bridge and historic Lime Point near the north tower. If you’d like a print of this image click here.

Wow Jim, that is a stunning shot of the bridge. You don’t see that perspective very often and it’s wonderful.
Thanks Alan.
Looks like you were out there on a beautiful morning.
It was a beautiful morning John — and a cold one.
Beautiful shot, Jim! This is one of my favorite locations to photograph the bridge from as well. In fact, I have a very similarly framed shot to this one (perhaps I was standing a bit to the left) hanging on my wall (http://blog.patulrichphotography.com/2009/11/golden-gate-at-sunrise.html).
Thanks Pat and “beautiful shot” back to you. I think you were on the pier. I have shot it from there too. I was a little ways down the trail from the pier. I don’t get too excited about photographing man-made things, but the bridge and San Francisco are exceptions.
