Fellow Dgrinner Aaron Newman (anwmn1) was in town last week and we headed into the city to try some nighttime Bay Bridge shots. Fun times. These were my favorites.

    Even better! Now eyes truly are forced to start at bottom and go all the way!

    Was it hand held, tripod, or drone? :giggle clap.gif

    #2 is star-burst city!! If you give away settings, ISO/f-stop/shutter, I will dance at your wedding!

    Thanks again, SB! Tripod of course, I'm not that steady and still saving up for the drone. mwink.gif
    EXIF is actually in all my photos, so you might try using an EXIF plugin in your browser. It's a great tool.

    Here's the info on #2.

    Camera Model = Canon EOS 5D Mark III
    Exposure Time (1 / Shutter Speed) = 30/1 second ===> 30 second
    ISO Speed Ratings = 100
    Original Date/Time = 2014:01:19 21:42:03
    Aperture Value (APEX) = 31141/3734
    Aperture = ƒ/18
    Exposure Bias (EV) = 0/1 ===> 0
    Focal Length = 100/1 mm ===> 100 mm

    Wow....number 3 another view ( the latest) is great. Have seen lots of awesom pics with this landscape but '3 another view' reminds me of a sailboat speeding through with a light trail. Different!!!! Really like!

    Thanks kdog!! I have to figure put the exif reader. So you did not use your 24-70mm. Since I don't have it, I have hope. :D

    Well I guess I don't need to post my shots now. :cry

    Good stuff Joel. I really like the pano and I must say whoever showed you #2 and alternate of #3 must be a pretty smart dude. :D

    Nope! Just the 16-25 and 70-200 this time around, and yes I was pretty pleased with the stars each one gave. deal.gif

    Search google for EXIF browser plugin, and pick one of the many. I use EXIF Viewer by Raskin. Easy peazy.

    Indeed, but not as smart as the guy who brought you to this location and showed you the other comps. :D

    Thanks, man. There really aren't that many comps from these locations, so some overlap is bound to happen. Post your shots, I'm sure they're awesome as usual. Great hanging with you as always.

    You are modest! Modest people learn the most and have good stuff to share! :D

    First of all, Joel, I'm still trying to figure out how in heck I missed this posting until now.

    I'm certain you must be getting sore from all the pats on the back you've rightly earned with this series. I'm apologizing in advance, but I'm going to add myself to the gang. That's some really outstanding work. Getting results like this....shooting at night.... is not something that good equipment alone can ensure. Really fine work on your part.... in adding your skills.... to pull it all together. clap.gifclap
