Fog is Creeping in Over San Francisco

In September I planned to take a sunset shot of the Golden Gate bridge from 17.5 miles (28 km) away from the hills behind Oakland. It did not pan out, too much fog was rolling in from the sea. The light however was nice over downtown San Francisco after sundown.

I processed a balanced and a deep HDR photo from a RAW exposure, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
