A City Transformed: The View from Treasure Island
Some photographs are not just about a place, but about a perspective that changes the way you see it. This image, taken from Treasure Island, offers a truly unique look at the iconic San Francisco skyline.
I used a wide-angle lens for this shot, a tool that allowed me to capture the sweeping scale of the bay and the city. It’s a lens I don’t even think I own anymore, which makes this photo a special kind of memory—a moment in time, frozen and unrepeatable. The wide angle not only captures the impressive scale of the cityscape but also the vastness of the bay and the atmosphere that hangs over it.
This view from Treasure Island is a reminder of how powerful a shift in perspective can be. It’s a look at a familiar city from a fresh, expansive angle, showing San Francisco not just as a collection of buildings, but as a living, breathing landscape shaped by the water that surrounds it.
