All tagged night
I recently pulled the trigger on a new camera purchase: Sony A6000. It was not only on sale at Amazon for $630USD but also bundled with a free case (meh), free 16GB memory card from Sony (always need more memory cards), and most importantly: 2 free batteries and charger from Wasabi Power. All of Sony's mirrorless cameras seem to eat up batteries like no tomorrow.
Here's a reworked Bay Bridge photo, desaturated to Black & White then split toned. Much, much simpler color palette, and a little bit unearthly. But then night photos are always surprising with their colors. The human eye can't see as much color detail at night like a camera.
Last Saturday night in SF was the big Trey Ratcliff photowalk, the last stop in the tour. Hundreds of photographers gathered on Pier 39 to walk the Embarcadero down to AT&T park. People kept asking: What is this gathering about? All I could say was a very popular photographer is leading a group of people on a walk through the city. His name is Trey Ratcliff, his website is StuckInCustoms.com and he's a cool guy.
I've been using the 45-200mm telephoto for more landscapes lately. This photo is a composite: The moon was out of frame with the telephoto so I took 2 shots and blended them together.
