Before 9/11 (and before I found photography) you used to be able to hop a fence and walk out on the catwalk that runs under the length of the bridge. I'm sure it's impossible to reach now but if you could get out there you'd be able to get some shots no one else has.

When I first visited the bridge, back in the mid 1980's, the narrow catwalk on the right-hand side was open for foot traffic as far as the forts frontal midpoint - you couldn't walk all the way around or get on the catwalk that is under the bridge. Now a fence prevents you from walking to the front of the fort.

Thanks Austin. It will be in a show (opening Saturday at 3pm) in Hayward at Photocentral. There will also be a inkjet copy of it on display (image size 30"x72") in the stairwell. Still wrapping my head around an image of mine that size.

I am surprised that the image turned out -- I was on top of Fort Point and the 8x10 was trying to become a box kite in the wind. Exposure was less than a second, but not by much.

My nomination for "most photographed" is the 6th st bridge in Los Angeles over the concreted Los Angeles River.
True, one seldom sees a LF photo of it, [HAER] but part of it seems to appear in every third TV commercial and TV crime drama, plus movies to a lesser , but significant degree. Sometimes it is even portrayed to be in Los Angeles.
Very few folks jump from it.
