Week 10: Night-time

4 05 2010

I had quite the touristy day in Austin.  I went to Mount Bonnell(the highest point in Austin, 775ft.), walked around the capitol building(constructed from 1882-88) and watched the bats fly out from under the Congress St. bridge(1.5 million bats to be exact).  After the bats were done, the crowd began to disperse and I was left with the Austin skyline, perfect for my night-time assignment.  I decided to play around this time.  I experimented with long exposures and the zoom effect.  The results were interesting…can’t wait to try it out again.

Rainy Days

22 09 2009

When it rains it pours. ..and pours…and pours. DFW has had a ridiculous amount of rain over the past two weeks.  It truly seemed like it would never end.  All the rain caused the Trinity River to rise which created great photo ops.  Here are a few of my favorites.
