The Golden Gate bridge is perhaps one of the world’s most photographed objects. My challenge was to capture the mood of that night – windy, rolling fog, mostly mysterious darkness with a sense of height and drop off – but with a moon at times so bright objects had distinct hard shadows; night and day merged. A feeling of isolated order imposed over nature: the concrete kerb reigning in the bench; the bridge dominating over the rugged headland – but not a person to be seen. San Franciso in a nutshell? Perhaps. MT

About the prints
Prints are made by Printmaster Wesley Wong of Giclee Art using our proprietary Ultraprint process, which delivers extremely high real resolutions – up to 720 pixels per inch, or four times that of an iPad’s Retina display, a wide gamut, and very smooth tonal transitions. We print on either Canson Infinity Platin Fiber Rag baryta or Permajet Portrait White depending on the subject matter and size using Epson Ultrachrome archival-grade inks.
