Golden hour at Battery Boutelle is special. As the sun prepares to set, it casts a warm light over the whole scene, shining on the iconic Golden Gate Bridge and the foreground. Take advantage of this and do some portrait photography; the viewer won’t be able to take their eyes off the bridge and the model.
