Description
A SOLD IMAGE, AVAILABLE AGAIN
Graceful, fog-shrouded full-span color photo of San Francisco's iconic Golden Gate Bridge, featuring the span from the Sausalito side to the mainland.
Just above the land at center right, you'll see a low cloud of the Bay Area's classic fog. This is called advection fog, and is caused by the horizontal movement of warm moist air over a cold surface. Sea fogs are always advection fogs. Fog forms at sea when warm air associated with a warm current drifts over a cold current and condensation takes place. Sometimes such fogs are drawn inland by low pressure, as often occurs on the Pacific coast of North America, where San Francisco is located.
Shot in the summer of 2009 from a ferry near Sausalito, in Marin County. At the far left is the San Francisco mainland and Fort Baker, a former Army base and fort built in 1861. It had been converted to a resort, Cavallo Point Lodge.
