What a wonderful view - the bridge just comes alive in the lighting. The wonderful palette in the sky complements the bridge well. I understand that the person provides a scale perspective, I just wish he weren't so prominent and taking away from the bridge itself. Still, an unusual perspective of the Golden Gate (given the number of shots of it in this challenge). My top 10.

The lighting through the fog is incredible - worth getting up early for! The composition is great - I so wish the crane didn't block the view or attract so much interest in the picture - I suppose you couldn't the drive the crane out yourself :D

Very nice perspective that conveys "heading into the city for the night". Subtle colors of the sky, fabulously lit up downtown skyline and the bridge itself - got a lot of nice things going for the pic - my top 10.

Always love lighthouses, especially at dusk/dawn :)
Nice star bursts in the lights, nice reflection, a subtle palette on the sky, and the people for perspective. This shot's got a lot to study - my top 10.

A lightning in the shot! Very very cool - something that's on my bucket list :)
Hope you didn't stay too long and get wet. Very nice shot - my top 10.

Very rich hue and a good reflection.
The dark diagonal at the bottom-left is distracting and leading away from the bridge, but I see that you couldn't really avoid it - unless you were at some higher vantage point. Good effort - my top 10.

My favorite in this round - hope this gets the blue.
Amazing color + Pleasing lines + Simplistic feel of the bridge as well as the picture + Added interest of a bicyclist. Very nice composition.

My pick for blue - very captivating. Amazing background and pleasing colors all around. I would've probably liked slightly less power from the flash to balance with ambient light better, but then the subject wouldn't stand out as well, so not sure about that.

Very unique entry! Great effort in setting it up and the lighting's fantastic. Even the caption's perfect for it. No doubt in my mind - this will get the blue.

I can see the support thread for the moon - too bad it's basic editing.

Crisp clouds, the solar star burst, and an interesting angle make this a very nice shot. Hope this ribbons. I would've probably liked better if the sun was behind the head - kind of a halo, but this works pretty well.
