Description I took this at like 2am this morning. No tricks with light on the church either. The church had lights all around it, all I did was lighten the shot a little to show the houses. I have decided that I like shooting in .raw format!

Kevin, I love your sunset photos. I am a big fan of them too. But this one, like all the previous comments have mentioned, has a pretty wild effect to it. It is framed out perfectly, great composition.

Thank you very much Maria for the wonderful comment and compliment!
I will try to get back to my sunsets in the future...they are my favorites too, but working 3rd shift does not reallyallowme to see sunsets that often since I am just waking up right after sunset.
Also, thank you so much for the it is appreciated

That is a rough shift. You have to do what you have to do. Take your camera with you and something will catch your eye. Take care of yourself and be safe riding.

pretty sweeet ! and yeah ! that one lit window really adds to and makes the shot (not to sure about the lit window on the bottom floor/below though ?)
as for the comments on RAW/file size = storage is cheap (?)
you def get a better print off of a processed RAW.

Yea not sure what is going on down there either, especially at 2am
Yea, I have a tara bite external hard drive that I keep my shots on, so storage isn't a problem...yet

Yes there is kind of a yin/yang, good vs. evil thing happening there. I didn't notice it til I got home and was looking through the shots.

Beautiful shot. Yes shooting in Raw is great, the only disadvantage is that it took so much space!

Thank you very much!
Yes, the colors are more vibrant in Raw. Yes they do take up a lot of room, plus my camera saves both a jpg and raw image for each shot.

WALKING-GIRL In reply to kdjohnston [2010-10-26 08:10:09 +0000 UTC]

You are very welcome. I can save both jpg and raw too, and I
really like that. This way I don't have to save all the raw files,
and you can see immediately what you shot.

kdjohnston In reply to WALKING-GIRL [2010-10-27 00:45:55 +0000 UTC]

That is what I do too. I look through the jpg's and then clean up the raw files that I like

Yes that is the most efficient way I think.

This kind of gives me a good vs evil impression, the dark steeple looks like it's being pushed away by the white one...That one lit window is pretty mysterious too It makes me wonder who's in that room, why are they up at 0200 and what are they doing? Very cool!!

kdjohnston In reply to GeminiMuse [2010-10-24 05:51:42 +0000 UTC]

There are so many churchs here in the downtown area and in reality it does seem like the good vs. evil thing. Baptists vs Catholics, Lutherans vs Jews. This shot really broguht that out with all th light on one church like it was saying "our religion is better than yours".

Yea, I was wondering what they were doing too...maybe I need a longer lens and we can both find out

Thank you so much for the wonderful comment!

kdjohnston In reply to GeminiMuse [2010-10-24 07:08:55 +0000 UTC]

I am not sure which one this is but literaly I passed 6 churches in two blocks and was standing on another church's property when I took this.

I guess so. On the up side, if you don't like what one has to say, you can always walk down the street to the next one.

GeminiMuse In reply to kdjohnston [2010-10-25 20:20:36 +0000 UTC]

Haha, of course, but no schoolgirl fantasy action at my school, they had an absolute no skin policy About once a week we had to get on our knees and show the nuns that our skirts weren't too short, the hem had to touch the ground Ok, that came across really naughty I got sent home for a week in 6th grade because my skirt was too short (I was 5'10" by the time I was 12) and my parents had to have a seamstress make some new uniforms that were long enough, it was so stupid, nothing sexy or revealing about a knob-kneed Olive Oyl- I looked more like a Thai tranny, not a schoolgirl vixen thinking about it, maybe that was the problem...hee hee, you know, with the priests and all

kdjohnston In reply to GeminiMuse [2010-10-25 23:56:19 +0000 UTC]

Yea that did come across really naughty and if it were 20 yr olds...now your talking fantasy!!!!

I dated a couple of Catholic school girls in high school and yea their skirts were about the same so the whole fantasy was kinda not there...but they look really good in jeans!

Thai tranny, no that is funny.
