Having lived in the Bay Area for nearly four years now, I finally managed to get out and take some pictures of the city during the evening hours.
This one was shot near the Embarcadero at Pier 1 showing the famous Bay Bridge, which I think is actually a lot prettier than the Golden Gate Bridge... but whatever. I'll soon make my way down that way too.
24-70@24mm f/4.5 25s ISO200.
I would have shot at a smaller aperture, but f/4.5 was able to get me just under 30 seconds before using the bulb setting (I forgot my remote).

This is a great spot where you can get a pretty decent view of the big tall pointy TransAmerica Pyramid building and the Bay Bridge.

This is the view from Hangar 1 Distillery onto Downtown San Francisco nearing Sunset where the fog begins to roll in over the city as you can see far off in the distance. Shooting buddy Dave Cohen was able to get a nice one of this view as well.
85mm f/1.8 1/80s ISO 200

Belize: Where the weather is always this awesome and the sunsets are beautiful. This photo was taken handheld (setting up a tripod would have been a mosquito nightmare) near the sunset hour (close to 6pm). The secret to this one was the circular polarizer tilted slightly left and setting WB ~ 5K. The kids were kind enough to let me take pictures of them while they practiced on their body board.
Welcome to San freaking Pedro

view on black
Shot 10 minutes after sunset on the island town of San Pedro. I was out on a dock and set it on the ground (no tripod). Plus the dock was the only place to get away from mosquitos.
24-70@24mm f/4 8seconds @ ISO 500 (for added dynamic range) + circular polarizer. vignetting and border added in Photoshop.
