Description
One lone blue car has the road to itself as it travels one of the hairpin curves allowing it to climb San Francisco, California's famous Twin Peaks that overlook the city. A residential area is shown in the background, with botanicals in the foreground--including the golden-brown grass that led to California's nickname, "The Golden State."
Surprisingly, the famous City by the Bay has only 750,000 residents. The city seems much larger because so many people work here, often driving an hour or more on their commute. Shot in the early afternoon with a Canon A630, using a stone wall as a tripod.

Thank you for your contest vote and kind comments, David. I need to look at the TV contest submissions. Glad to know you're taking a shot at it, and wishing you well.

Great shot! just voted. Would you mind voting for my 3 in National TV Photo contest now? The three URLs below are pointing to three photographs that I have in an international photo contest. I would like to have your vote for each of them because if I can get 250 votes or more for each I will be entered in the final count for this contest. Should I go on to win, I could have my photograph appear on television and in magazines! Just copy each URL, one at a time, and connect to it in your URL line, usually at the top of your screen, and vote! Please! Please! Please! The contest ends midnight June 30th, 2013 so please don't delay. Maybe even ask your friends to do it for me too?? Just forward it for me.

Thanks so much, Lenore. I'm thrilled that you like it, and appreciate so much that you took the time to mention specific components. Now, if only I could find the driver of that light-blue car, I might have a buyer.;-) That would be cool!
