Photo of the day #5

The Seagle Building in downtown Gainesville Florida

 

Another shot from my photo walk home last week with my Canon 320HS point and shoot camera.  Just after an evening rain shower the sky was a beautiful blue grey color.  I walked the 2 miles home snapping photos along the way using light posts and whatever I could find to steady the shots.  I believe I was actually pressing the camera against a tree for this shot.  The building is the Seagle Building in downtown Gainesville Florida.

Canon 320HS, 18mm

Photo Of The Day #4

Century Tower at The University of Florida

 

Walking home from work last night I decided to stop and try some long exposure shots of Century Tower, the 157 foot (48m) carillon bell tower at The University of Florida.  I often take pictures of the tower from different angles but thought it would be fun to make use of the SLR’s ability to do long exposure night shots. I did not have a tripod with me so I set up the camera on top of my camera bag and used the self timer to capture this shot.

Taken with Canon T4i, 18-135mm STM Lens.

3.2 second exposure

f3.5
