I continue to carry the Canon full frame body into the neighborhood at night more often. I swapped the Sigma 35mm for the Canon 35mm f1.4. I added Canon’s 85mm f1.4 prime to shoot in these dark conditions. Here are images from the past several days. I’ve been looking closely at images that reach back a ways through this personal project. Mixed light seems to draw my eye. Mixed light seems to stop me. Click inside the image(s) to advance in the set.
Testing… testing…
Tonight’s pix. Rain earlier left cool wet air and bright colors under the bigger streetlights on California Ave. Some of these are on my street, though… low, low light.
A stain of red, lonely intersection, trees, geometry
Why “Number Ten”? I must have nine other neighborhood nightscape sets – all part of the year+ long “One Dog Night” project – that I’ll want to edit to share here on my blog. All those nine shot before this post. These are just last night 7/27/2018. Different camera, same field of view as much of the work I do on the Fujis: 35mm prime – here on a Canon 5D Mark 4.
Went out at dusk the other night with a fellow Fuji shooter and Jack came along (it was, after all, HIS walk) and we took a few. Fun to have a fellow-traveler along.
Smoke from British Colombia’s forest fires – way north of us – has blanketed Puget Sound. Here’s sunset tonight from West Seattle’s northernmost high bluff. Ferries pass in the smoke.
It’s dark out there.
I see this view all the time when I walk the dog. He doesn’t care. But I love the changing light and clouds. Over time I’ll add more. This was popular on Facebook.
