Michael Fletcher is visiting the Golden Gate bridge so I’m posting a shot I have of it.

This panoramic was taken just after sunrise from the Marin side Golden Gate lookout point.

I went to the furthest corner of the stone wall, set up my panoramic and took some exposures. I was in aperture mode and let bracketing do the rest knowing I’d adjust the exposures to match using DxO.

I liked how the morning light reflected off the binoculars so I left them in the shot.

This exposures ended up being mattered 1/3 from each other. This was stitched from three stitches. 0 EV, +2EV and -2EV-1EV (the latter is pushed in DxO). I then digitally blended the result.

Click for stitch at at 0EV (If you cannot view this, add me to your contacts and I’ll add you to my friends. If you are already a contact of mine then just jet me a message and I'll fix your status.)
