A mesmerizing twilight view of San Francisco's iconic Golden Gate Bridge captured during the purple hour, when the sky and water merge in ethereal shades of violet and blue. The bridge's signature International Orange towers stand in striking contrast against the dusky atmosphere, while its illuminated spans create a string of pearls across the bay. The foreground features a rocky shoreline where waves lap gently against dark volcanic rocks, creating a dreamy long-exposure effect that smooths the water into a silky purple canvas. The Marin Headlands rise majestically in the background, their silhouette adding depth to this atmospheric composition.
