I took advantage of a relatively clear, winter night to take a long-distance photo of the Bay Bridge curving in front of Coit Tower. From this perspective, the path to the Eastern Span appears to take a sharp turn. However, on a map, the angle is closer to 135°. This effect occurs because the bridge is quite far away from the camera, resulting in some depth compression. The curve in the photo appears similarly when viewed with the naked eye — at this distance from this location.
