John Jacqua building

I'd been waiting for the right evening to photograph this new UO building, and tonight was pretty stellar.

I had to delete a ton of dust from the image, but I was pretty happy with it other than that.

Needless to say, I just spent 30min. cleaning my sensor...

C&C very welcome...

Here is another shot I took, from a slightly different angle. I did a B&W conversion on this one, although I took it in color.

love the color in the first one, you are getting better and better at the HDR. i might have to visit that spot once the trees have some leaves on them

very cool! well worth waiting for the light!

 

[HoedadKid]

Thanks, you two. I'm trying to restrain myself from shooting EVERYTHING via auto-bracketing right now... It's a ton of fun to mess around with at the moment, though.

The light was definitely worth waiting for, and I agree that some spring greenery would look great on a well lit evening.

Thanks for the comments

Cheers!

Gorgeous and I have to agree about returning when there are leaves...can you imagine that shot in Fall at high color...WOW!!!

 

[HoedadKid]

Thanks, Christena.

I think it'd be fun to do a series of images of this building, all from the exact same angle. One each in spring, summer, fall, and winter. If I could only make it snow on command!

I like the color on the first but the second has better composition to me, simply because it has less perspective distortion.

 

[HoedadKid]

Thanks, Sam. I agree about the overall composition. In order to get that reflection in the first image I had to stand where I was, but I guess I could have tried to level it out with less keystoning.

I think I'll post the second image in color just for fun, as well.

Thanks for the comment

I hear ya...Rogue Valley doesn't get a lot of snow...it's just bleak and one must travel for Wintery Photo Ops...
