This is the shot I took before Transamerica Building Beacon lighted on 6PM Monday.
Do you agree if it is the best spot for SF New Year Firework?
Happy Holidays!

There are tons of pictures on GGB from Hawk Hill, it seems only a few were from this spot. The reason is that the spot is not accessible from normal roads open to the public, and local Sausalito people may be unwilling to share this wonderful viewpoint with outsiders also.
Several days ago, I met a college friend living in Sausalito at FB. With my promise not to expose the spot to the public, I got the map and direction.
This Saturday, I was late to start as I was debating to go or not due to the weather was not as promising as I expected based on the forecast. It took me a unexpected long time to get the spot, and understand why the local Sausalito people are not welcoming the outsiders, as you can hardly find a parking in such narrow roads, and tiny space.
Anyway, I missed the blue hour and bridge's lights were off:-( but the view is spetacular and unforgetable. I will definitely come back for blue hour.

New Year Holiday brings a lot of tourists to the Bay Area, and Golden Gate Bridge is a must-see place.
Last Saturday, I finished my shots at Sausalito Hill and turned to Conzelman Rd, and found no parking available all the way to Hawk Hill.
I was so rejoiced that I had done my blue hour shots at a spot occupied by myself only, so I don't have to fight for a parking with all tourists under the clear sky for GGB. I double parked to make a shot at beacon aligned with North tower, and finished my 2012 explores at Golden Gate Bridge.
Happy New Year to Everyone!
