ooops, I thought this was the same photo as your previous winning one too! I think I might prefer this version, there's a bit more contrast to it and the composition seems a bit better than the already great framing in the other one. Definitely calendar material, Denise! Cheers! :)

"With subjects like this, it is hard to take a "bad" photo!!!", you gave justice on it! a real stunner.

Our Bay Area "city of lights", just marvelous. I hope someday to get a shot equivalent to this masterpiece. Lora

This is a calendar shot AND a postal card! Fantastic!

Thanks for setting me straight, Denise. I should have looked back before commenting. Actually I like this version better than the other one. This one's simply stunning!

LOL, Jerry. Nope, not the same photo. Here is the link to that pic:http://www.pbase.com/dchip/image/55551028
I was in the same location but felt this pic had a different "feel" to it. I try not to enter any images that have already placed in a previous challenge ;-))))

Thanks to all of you for your comments. With subjects like this, it is hard to take a "bad" photo!!!

Hey! No fair! You already won a challenge with this one ;-)
Super shot, Denise. It deserved to win then, and it deserves a place on a calendar, too!

Beautiful shot Denise and a perfect calendar photo! Really well done with great composition and exposure!

Makes me homesick for my old home town. I know just where you were when you took it. The clarity and color is perfect.

Great shot, Denise. Lit up like a Christmas tree! Helen

Magnificent view of sunset at San Francisco... Beautiful..

Denise, it is like a sparkling Christmas tree and the colors are perfect. Love the touch of the single tower against the horizon. Dale

Gorgeous! A stunning photo, Denise. As the sun tucks itself in for the night, the city comes alive.
