Architecture night time in city center

night time in city center · 09:29 PM

I've been meaning to get down here and shoot these for a while. I wanted to do them originally in the daytime, but so glad I got them at night. The Art Gallery of Alberta is just beautiful at night, a real architectural marvel. I love it! Images taken with Pentax K5, and Nikon D600. Used DA 10-17 fisheye, DA*16-50, and Takumar 50mm f1.4 (2nd series) from the Pentax stable, and the 50mm f1.8 G and 85mm f1.8 G from the Nikon bag. Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek!

I had a thread about San Diego open and thought, oh hey... San Diego looks a lot like downtown Edmonton. Then I read your post.

I wish I had taken advantage of this warm spell for photos, but I had the bbq going instead

Tripod used? What kind of exposure length?

no tripod, all hand held. If you check my flickr pages the settings are tagged on every image, but most are 1/20 of a sec, some 1/30 of a sec.

it was a great night for shooting. There was more I wanted to do, but wanted to reserve some spots for January. The BBQ was running at my place later in the night too... then again, its not often its not running around here.
