This is my last post for a while. After this week I will be taking a short Flickr break to complete a workshop, before going on a three day photo trip.

 

Palace of Fine Arts has been on my list to shoot for a while, and will remain on my to-shoot list. This image was taken very early in the morning. I much prefer shooting long exposures after sunset, as I find it a lot easier to chase the light. I can always increase exposure times during twilight to achieve a desired result. Choosing not to use a filter for this image; that same concept does not work shooting before sunrise.

 

I used my new camera for this image. I have recently done some intense research in to the Nikon D7000, and thought that sharing my findings may be of interest to anyone thinking of purchasing new equipment. I very much enjoy using my D700; however at half the price the D7000 may be a better option for many photographers.
