Took some pics at an evening graduation last week, and as I was leaving, this pic said please take me. Fortunately I had a tripod with me.

The Old Arts Building on the main campus of the University of Pretoria

I was totally amazed at how much blur there was in the shots I took without the remote :scratch

If i'm stuck without a remote, I just use the timer instead. Nice shot by the way :thumb

Thanks for kind comments all!

Mushy: I now always keep a remote in the bags I use

Skippy: the grass is wonderfully green as the uni has an amazingly strong spring on the campus - you should see my lawn :cry

Marina: it is a photogenic building, I have lots of pics of it :D

Dalantech & Socrate: exposure was pure guesswork, I decided on one stop under and took the pics - no PP adjustments here other than a touch of sharpening

Awais: as I said to Marina, it is a nice building to take pics of (also the oldest on the campus)

Hey, there is even an antelope type of animal in front!:thumbThanks Ric - I think it's supposed to be some kind of reedbuck. Will check.
