Different Times

So here is the first of my pictures all taken at different times of the day I will update this post as the other pictures are taken first off I learned a very valuable lesson tonight I brought the camera inside to take pictures of what else but my overwinter chili garden experiment and I was on my way to the store at about 11 pm and I came across a once in a life time picture with the fog and the street lights that would have made a far better picture than the one I am posting but I left the camera at home and I have no way to get the pictures off my stupid cell phone and onto the computer yet. Also a good note when taking night time pictures with a extended shutter speed a tripod is very nice as the first twenty pictures I took the shake was so bad I had to go and dig out the tripod just to get one good shot.

Ok here is a picture taken first thing in the morning the sun is coming from the other side of the road and is just peeking over the mountain now. leaving the left side of the vehicle in the shadows.

This next picture was taken just prior to 10:30 when the sun had cleared the mountain and was actually shining showing a strong side light.

And finally this picture was taken when the sun was on the left side of the vehicle unfortunately it was completely blocked out by the building another issue when taking pictures and timing them around the sun you need to know the direction the sun travels and what is around that might mess up your shot.

Man trying to line up these shots each time was really hard thank god for the fact that they like to walk and left there car parked there all day.

This picture was a happy accident as trying to aim the camera in the dark when all you can see is dark is a bit hard I happened to do a test picture as a car came around the corner and this is what I got there was a little shake in the shot but other wise a cool shot none the less.

  2. Good thing you got the cars to stay in their respective parking spots all day. Nice noticeable lighting changes.

  3. Oh this is a great study! Sort of had a flashback to the whole camera-following-the-Bronco days. But note color AND where shadows are. Love the last one and its neon feel...
