[QUOTE="Dangerspouse, post: 727503, member: 46690"] I had a lot of fun with this week's challenge, "architecture". I'd never specifically tried that genre before, and it really forced me to contemplate how to compose shots from subjects I didn't think were inherently photogenic. I don't know that I managed anything noteworthy, but I had a good enough time that I'd like to try doing more of these. These are all shots of the building and parking garage where I work. My shift starts at 4:30am, so I arrived a half hour early yesterday to try some low light shots (my poor D5500 was screaming at my choice of ISO, lol...). Then at 9am I had a break so I went out and took a few more in the sunlight. All of these shots are hand held. Even this 2 second exposure, where I braced myself against a pillar and held my breath. I took 4 fuzzy shots before I managed this : [ATTACH=CONFIG]332290._xfImport[/ATTACH] This is the walkway from the garage to the side door entrance that I use: [ATTACH=CONFIG]332291._xfImport[/ATTACH] The pre-dawn parking garage interior looked interesting in real life, with intersecting angles and lighting, but I didn't capture it well in these photos. Still got a lot to learn.... [ATTACH=CONFIG]332292._xfImport[/ATTACH] . [ATTACH=CONFIG]332293._xfImport[/ATTACH] . [ATTACH=CONFIG]332294._xfImport[/ATTACH] Lol...I had to take this quick snapshot. They got the parking level number incorrect on one of them. I still don't know which floor I was on: [ATTACH=CONFIG]332295._xfImport[/ATTACH] And finally, the photo I entered in the challenge: [ATTACH=CONFIG]332297._xfImport[/ATTACH] A few hours later in daylight.... This is the one I almost entered in the challenge. It was a tough choice: less noise and classic composition, or more noise but more interesting shot (to me)? I went with interesting, but I still like this: [ATTACH=CONFIG]332296._xfImport[/ATTACH] . [ATTACH=CONFIG]332298._xfImport[/ATTACH] . Somebody was having a bad day: [ATTACH=CONFIG]332299._xfImport[/ATTACH] . I like this composition, but I had to shoot it through a dirty glass pane so it's kinda gunky. Not sure if I prefer the OOC framing, or the cropped version: [ATTACH=CONFIG]332300._xfImport[/ATTACH] . [ATTACH=CONFIG]332301._xfImport[/ATTACH] Please don't tell my boss I was goofing off on the company dime.... :sneakiness: [/QUOTE]
