USA SFO skyline from Treasure Island
a great spot to shoot the famed SFO skyline at sunset/blue hour or night. you will get a perfectly parallel view of SF's downtown skyline. if you are there during any fireworks season, then this is the spot. you would get simply stunning pics. though I have not shot this kind but would love to if I get a chance. one more thing that looks great from here is the golden gate bridge in the golden hour. the one I experienced was simply stunning.
Photography Tips
Take a tripod... this is a great place for some long exposures and is quite windy. So the tripod gives the best results. If you don't have a wide-angle lens, no worries at all... taking a panorama would make your shot still better.
Travel Information
SFO has one of the best public transport systems in the US. There are buses to & from here to downtown late until night, so don't worry about getting out from here. Also, there are a few parking lots if you want to drive.
