"California and Powell Streets"

I went to California and Powell to try to capture this scene one morning, before heading over to Treasure Island for the city skyline. You can capture the sun rising behind the bridge span twice a year. I think I missed it by a week.

San Francisco ~ California ~ USA

All comments are welcome.

Oh wow Tex!

You may not have gotten the sun, but you got that classic shot with the street car coming up the hill! This is really nice.

That's outstanding! Iconic view and delightful b&w treatment!

This is the kind of shot that grabs me and says I should be looking at the Cityscapes forum more often. Well done.

Very nice shot. I rode one of these about 60 years ago. Probably still operating.

A classic in every way! Nice work, Tex.
