End of the Road


Nikon D100, Tamron 24-135mm

A lone cyclist looks out through the Golden Gate toward the ocean from Fort Point at the base of the Golden Gate Bridge. This shot was taken from the bridge looking down.
Interestingly, I was thinking "black & white" when I saw this composition in my mind.

Beauty!

I love the way you've composed this so that it goes from wild, chaotic natural stream at upper left to a more orderly assemblage of rocks as a middle band to a very geometric and precise finish by the time the eye gets to the right side of the frame.

The cyclist is the perfect touch to add a sense of the huge scale.

Way to go!

Regards,

Thanks Steve.

The sight of the bicyclist prompted me to compose the shot in the first place. In other words, I saw the cyclist, decided that I wanted to frame a picture around him, then I worked on the composition.
