I knew a night shot with light trails would be the solution this week. This is the entrance to the JW Marriott resort in Palm Desert, CA.

While on a walk today, in preparation for the new GR IIIx, I set my 28-60mm zoom to 40mm to get a feel for the focal length.

52Frames - Week 33 - Night Photography

I was intent on shooting light trails for this week's 52Frames challenge on Night Photography.

Of the many shots I took, this is the #1 pick (with an assist on the selection from my friend, Anna).  I was perched on this corner, camera on tripod, just shooting away at traffic patterns and light sequences.  Timing was everything on this capture.

52Frames - Week 33 - Night Photography (Alternate)

I was intent on shooting light trails for this week's 52Frames challenge on Night Photography.

Of the many shots I took, this is the #2 pick.  I set-up at a tollway oasis, camera on tripod, just shooting away at traffic light trails.  While the light trails were good, the photo was boring.  So I captured some higher shutter speed shots with vehicles and ghosted them in via a 3-image composite (first ever) using blend mode and opacity adjustments in PS.

52Frames - Week 33 - Night Photography (Alternate)

I was intent on shooting light trails for this week's 52Frames challenge on Night Photography.

Of the many shots I took, this is the #3 pick.  I was shooting in the opposite direction and had to swing the camera around on the tripod quickly when I heard the warning bells.  Lucky capture.
