Night Bridge

You were determined to get a great shot off for the event.
Well done - it's a very nice result.

Night Bridge

Hi!

I like the idea of this photo. The only thing that bothers here is that the closest pylon of the bridge seems not to be totally vertical but somehow jagged. Is this true-to-life, or is it the fisheye lens?

Night Bridge

Ash, when the 7pm time (for my area) was announced I knew it would be night. Bridge immediately became the best choice.

Almost didn't happen. They were having a ghost story festival to the left of the bridge (horrible traffic). Then it started raining. No problem for the K-7 but water drops on the 10-17 wouldn't look so good! Luckily, the rain stopped about 10 min before SyncSnap.

ranien, the "bending" pylons are caused by the fisheye. The train cars under the bridge look curved. It is a straight track! The curvature would be even worse at 10mm. My other wide lens is a Pentax 16-45. It wasn't wide enough.
thanks for looking at the image
