Cable Car and Bay Bridge, San Francisco

May 28, 2014  •  Leave a Comment

I made several trips to this iconic location in Nob hill area in San Francisco City on California street. I had to stop in middle of street and synchronize with street signals. Red signal gave me 30 sec each time to stay in middle of street full of vehicles in both directions. My first trip, I was able to take few shots but they were not exactly crisply focussed so I had to make one more trip and then it became several more before I found the 3 shots to create this panorama (Vertorama). Hope you will enjoy the view.

Technical: Canon EOS 5D Mark III, EF70-200mm f/4L IS USM, 3 shots, each 30.0 sec;   f/10;   ISO 50, raw imported in LR5, after white balance and shadow recovery, exported to Adobe Photoshop CC to create a panorama..
