Everyone asks, "How did you GET this shot?" as if it took extraordinary skill. All I really did was climb up the bridge's structure to gain a different perspective—so it just required curiosity. The result, of course, is pretty cool, and the lesson is this: Don't shoot all your pictures from human-eye level. Get low, get high, get sideways. —West Coast Editor Steve Casimiro
