OK... I don't do this normally but the shoulder is still AFU and I can't carry my gear around. This means you get a repeat post. There are a lot of new users that haven't seen these anyway.

Playing On The Freeway
Well above the freeway anyway.

I'd been wanting to try this with my digital for a long time. I shot some years ago on film but there is so much guessing involved. All shots with my 20D and 50mm F 1.8 lens. ISO 100. The time period was from just after sunset until fall on your rear dark. Taken from a freeway overpass.

If you decide to try this... do NOT drop your camera. You will mess it up! Wear light colored clothes so you don't get your butt run over by someone on the overpass.

Just After Sunset F16, 13 sec

Getting Darker F18, 18 sec

It's Dark Out There  F8, 33 sec

Extra F8, 48 sec

Sorry about the summer rerun. I'd rather have been able to go shoot new ones.

Inspired by surferguy these were taken near my front porch. Unfortunately no pier, but Highway 65. The clouds are leftovers from Hurricane Emily.

The first is the original exposure.

The second was adjusted with auto levels. Which do you like?

Evening2

I have a little room if anyone would like to visit...the views are just ok, and I have plenty of Kraft dinner.
