San Francisco Giants vs the San Diego Padres game last weekend at AT&T Park, San Francisco, California.

We are on a bit of a working vacation right now as we visit some long time friends in the Bay area and Lake Tahoe.  Nine months ago when our friends picked up tickets to this game – we had no idea how big it would be with the playoffs on the line.  The atmosphere was electric!  Much more like a college basketball game then a baseball game!

Thanks entirely to our wonderful friends, we had some of the best seats in the house.  I had to briefly pull myself away from the great seats and the action to climb to the top of the stadium for a few photos.  From this vantage point you get a better feel for the ocean side setting for this baseball stadium.  This is the middle photo of 3 that may one day be part of a panoramic.

  1. Oh, so envious that you were there. I grew up in the beautiful Bay Area, and been a Giants fan for over 30 years. Used to cut class to get to Candlestick and catch an afternoon game. Anyway, great pic of a gorgeous ballpark (got to sit about 15 rows behind home plate the last time I was there).

    Go Giants!!!!

  4. Nice shot. That’s what I’d like to do next time I go to a “real” ballpark. I don’t consider SunLife Stadium worthy of such a photo.

    Sorry about your Padres. I was really hoping they’d make it!

  5. This shot is awesome!! The beautiful colors of this image are so vibrant where the baseball field almost looks fake because of the bright blue water that sits directly behind it. If this is only 1 of 3 pictures taken, I can’t wait to see all 3 of them together to make even for a more brilliant image.

    Thanks Scott! You know, after losing 3 of 4 at home to the Cub, that Padres really didn’t deserve to make the playoffs. Thanks!

    Hi Molly – Thanks a lot!

  7. “From this vantage point you get a better feel for the ocean side setting for this baseball stadium.”

    Should be bay side not ocean side. Nice shot, though.
