Lombard Street is one of the most visited streets in San Francisco. This is a different point of view from Coit Tower to see how the crookedest street at night with these cars going down hill. It is best known for the one-way section on Russian Hill between Hyde and Leavenworth Streets, in which the roadway has eight sharp turns (or switchbacks) that have earned the street the distinction of being the crookedest "most winding "street in the world (though this title is contested). The focal length of this shot is 840mm by a long lens :)
