Tuesday, September 11, 2007 – Full On Sun

Some technical studies using the mid-afternoon September sun, on the Sunset Strip, the south side of the 8900-9000 block of Sunset Boulevard – working on depth, perspective, color and framing, and testing the limits of the digital processor.

Most of these photographs were shot with a Nikon D70 - using lens (1) AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or (2) AF Nikkor 70-300mm telephoto, or after 5 June 2006, (3) AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor, 55-200 mm f/4-5.6G ED. They were modified for web posting using Adobe Photoshop 7.0.  Earlier photography was done with a Sony Mavica digital still camera (MVC-FD-88) with built-in digital zoom.
