San Diego as seen from Coronado Island

I captured this photo of San Diego as seen from Coronado Island, presenting a splendid view of the skyline bathed in the warm glow of dusk. The composition of the image draws attention to the city's iconic towers, including the distinctive architecture of the Manchester Grand Hyatt and the gleaming glass of contemporary high-rises. The soft, golden light of the setting sun highlights the shapes and contours of these buildings, creating a mesmerizing reflection across the calm waters of San Diego Bay. The clouds above lend a dramatic effect, their varied shapes perfectly complementing the architectural lines below. This image not only showcases the beauty of San Diego's urban landscape but also captures a moment where natural beauty and human achievement harmoniously coexist. The subtle ripples in the water add an active dynamic to the scene, while the presence of a ferry in the foreground introduces a narrative element, suggesting the daily life and movement within this vibrant city. With the horizon set at a low angle, the sky occupies the majority of the frame, adding depth and an air of tranquility, making this one of my favorite moments captured in this beautiful city.
