Golden Night
Taken at the Golden Gate bridge around an hour after sunset. 30 secs exposure on ISO 200 negative film.
There is something wrong with this picture. People who are familiar with the place can easily identify that. That is a quiz for now.
I will answer that tomorrow.

thank you all.
you got it right. That is a mirror image. That was not intentional. I gave the slides to a photo lab to scan them and put on a CD. I realised that all the pictures which I got are mirror images. They basically put the wrong side up and scanned it.
Satz/Sud : Blue is just because of the long exposure, and a bit of increased colour saturation in photoshop. And the slide does get that rich colours. I mentioned it wrong that it was a negative. It was a slide(provia 100)

at 30s exposure, it is difficult to have control because of reciprocity failure. Still then you have superb result! Good shot!

Although nothing beats the good ol'reels...

Srikar: I have recently gone digital. This was one of the last rolls I have shot.
