Sunset landscape

Thanks RienzPhoto, rpt, Click and Dylan777.

December seems to always be one of the best month's for sunsets in the San Diego area. This one was taken five minutes down the Silver Strand from where I work. The Arleigh Burke destroyer anchored finally making it possible to do a long exposure. 10" : f/14 : ISO 100 : 5D MK III : Canon 24-70 V1 @ 70mm

Thanks all! Here's a quick look at the Camera RAW adjustments made.

Ok so it's the vibrance slider that's at fault, I should have known by all the blue. Like I said though, not a bad image. How come you're in camera raw and not lightroom? I thought all the cool kids had to use lightroom?? :P No offense I'm just kidding around...

sunset in hollywood yesterday. cropped ooc jpg, 100mm L

Kind of reminds me of The Eagles "Hotel California" album cover...Speaking of which, did you know about the 400 foot diameter "record" of the same album, spinning atop the LA Forum? I saw a pic on the web yesterday, shot from a low flying airliner...

Great image! Agreed Carl, it reminded me of that album cover right away!

Picked up a well used, travel-worn Pentax K100 Super the other day, with a pair of zoom lenses, all for the price of a few dozen beer. Cleaned it, tweaked it, nabbed a nice sunset with it near home this evening.
I think I'll be able to get my money's worth out of THIS investment. ;D
2006 technology; 6MP CCD with sensor-shift shake-reduction and AA batteries.

This one is made from a moving car, through the front glass, with Sony a7+28-70 kit lens, at 28mm, f/4, ISO 3200, 1/160 sec.

It's a pretty picture, and a good job capturing it through the windshield...especially if you were at the wheel! However, the halo along the edge of the building, and the fact that the sky is so dark relative to the backlit cityscape, is kind of artificial looking for my taste.

Thanks. Luckily I was not behind the wheel, that's why I am still alive ;D my-bro-in-law was driving. The reason you see the halo and the dark sky relative to the cityscape is due to the car's windshield had a very dark portion at the top of the glass.

It's a vertical halo running along the edge of the tall building.
