Sunset on San Francisco's Telegraph Hill and Bay Bridge

As the sun was setting, I excitedly ran up the tallest point in San Francisco, Telegraph Hill. Do I pay the $4.50 to go up Coit Tower perched atop this hill? Certainly! I'll get some good photos with that sunset!

Much to my dismay the guy selling the tickets didn't let me bring my tripod up there. Having a tripod really helps to take these HDR shots, because they require multiple exposures of the same scene. For this shot I braced myself against the side of the window.

That's the Bay Bridge in the background.
