Scale: 1 Bridge = Very Big.
Standing at the top of the north tower of the Golden Gate Bridge, looking east.
My gracious tour guides relax and chat with one another while I busily fire off photographs from every conceivable angle. I doubt I'll ever have the opportunity to stand in this spot again.
Thanks for the memories!

Bay + Bolts
Looking down through the catwalk at the bay below, from the top of the Golden Gate Bridge, north tower.
It's a long way down.

or, Standing on the Shoulders of a Giant: The Golden Gate Bridge, from the Top.
Straight Down the Middle
Standing dead center atop the north tower of the Golden Gate Bridge, facing toward The City.
Traffic isn't half bad for a weekday afternoon. At this height, all you hear is the wind.

Down through the Catwalk
For those who've ever wondered what it looks like to stand on the top of the Golden Gate Bridge looking down, here's the view looking at my feet and through the catwalk that encircles the north tower.
I'm not afraid of heights, apparently.

The Foyer
Standing inside "the foyer" of the Golden Gate Bridge, North Tower elevator shaft, waiting for the lift that will eventually take me to the top.

Up, Up, Up...
Inside the Golden Gate Bridge: At the bottom of an access shaft, looking up into the darkness...
This ladder goes all the way to the top. Fortunately, there's an elevator that makes the ascent safer, easier, and much, much faster.

I am a former- and future-Tokyoite, and a designer here at Everywhere. I think that no city is too big, no coffee is too cold, and no music is too minimal. I have a particular fondness for bourbon, uneven numbers, and taking photos of power lines.
