Coatdyke Lights

Canon EOS 550D, 18-55mm lens, ISO 100, Aperture Priority F22, 3 Exposures

These lights get switched on at the end of October every year and stay on until about the end of February.
I took this photograph this morning at about 7am they were turned on the night before. I took 3 exposures +/- 2 stops, ISO set at 100 and using aperture priority at F22. I then generated an HDR using Photomatix and edited a little bit more using Picasa. I like night photography but could be abit dangerous in the evenings so that is why i chose the morning for this photograph  much safer especially if you work alone.

Tyred

I took this photograph on the 28th October 2010. I was visiting a block of flats and noticed this bike sitting at the foot of the staircase and thought it might make an interesting photograph, to me the bike looks tired had has seen better days and i was glad that the tyres were both deflated, i used Photomatix to generate an HDR and edited more using Picasa.
