DTLA at night

Eldon Shea · August 19, 2016

I've been too busy with my day job to post lately, but was cajoled by a co-worker to go shoot golden/blue hour outside our office last night. It gave me a chance to try out the new Sony G-Master 24-70 f2.8, which is a phenomenal lens. Got a few shots I like. Hope to be posting more the rest of the year.

Comments, suggestions and criticism desired. Thanks. Bryan

#1 Oops. I forgot that when shooting wide I need to leave a lot of room around the frame to avoid lopping off the top of buildings when I straighten them.

#3 I know the right side should be cropped off, but my office is in the brown LA Care building on the right margin, so I left it.

Fun to see! Nice work!
I really like the sky colors in #4, #5.

I recently drove right there... it's a challenge!

Thanks, Eric. Yes, it is a bit congested. My office overlooks that freeway. Literally every day I hear the screech of tires and then a crash. Luckily the traffic is so heavy that no one is ever going very fast and I rarely see medics. I'm too high up to hear the swearing about the bent fenders.

Here is a view of the same area from my office window.

I like the lines of light in motion
