The legendary Golden Gate Bridge, when completed in 1937, was the longest suspension bridge in the world. Spanning 8,891 feet, this infamous landmark, with its elegant Art Deco design, cost $35 million depression-era dollars.

This panoramic photograph, taken from the foot of the Marin Headlands and the course-sand beach of Kirby Cove, captures the magnitude of the Golden Gate on a rare, fogless night. It took six two-minute exposures to record this amazing shot of the magnificent San Francisco Bay guardian.
