We had a little time to kill before our first Holiday party of the season, so we visited one of the most interesting Golden Gate Bridge vantage points. Shots from this location are always beautiful. This one is unique because of the intense smoke. It’s bad. Much worse than it appears in this shot. The second tower there is about a mile away – near the limit of visibility for the last several days.

We are hoping for a shift in the prevailing winds from offshore to onshore soon. When that finally happens, we’ll be able to breath without a mask again.

UPDATE: We are now experiencing the worst air quality in the world.
