I was in San Francisco for work and really wanted to get out and take some pictures. Unfortunately, my time was very limited and I had but one morning to spend an hour or so shooting. I combined three separate exposures to achieve this final images. HDR is always so controversial, so I expect a rating somewhere in the fives for this challenge, but it's been so long since I entered that I might as well submit something.

Nice lighting from the dawn sun. I feel though that this shot would benefit from the fence in the foreground being horizontal through the picture rather than the slight slope it is on.
It's a beautiful sunrise and gorgeous control of lighting. But I feel like the foreground takes too much attention from the background. That big ol' trash can is trying to be the center of attention.
Beautiful. I love the warm highlights and muted colors through out the shot. I especially love the light as it hits the lamp and lamp post. Nice wispy clouds as well which were gladly not overdone with Topaz or like software. :)
I see what appears to be the Golden Gate bridge in the background. I might guess this to be Fisherman's Wharf, but if it's first light the direction of the Sun would be wrong. Hmmmmm...perhaps it not...unless it's really last light. :)
Fantstic composition. I do not light the brightness of the light as I think it distracts the eye. Would like to have seen this photo just before daybreak or sunset.
