Dusk In Las Vegas

[Darcy Grizzle]

Teresa & I went out of our backyards LOL, hoping the sunset would be as good as the two previous nights. We pretty much got skunked, but made the best of it .

Three shot pano

Got lucky with a copter, and I didn't freeze the rotors LOL

I have spent more than a handful of nights out along the coast wishing I could get skunked like this. You are spoiled when it comes to sunsets

OMG and our sunrises. I ran out in my robe, hair up in a towel, one eye of makeup on this morning! Not the best shots as they are my from yard again but wow!

That last one looks like some amazing light. Time to get up really early and find a great place to capture it!

The last is the strongest, the 1st has good potential, too bad the FG in the heli shot is blurry.

Yeah I know right. I was having focus problems where my lens didn't want to focus at all, and was panning as they came over so fast

For sure, hoping for some clouds this weekend when I don't have to be at work at 6am LOL

Nice series, and taking pictures of local stuff is always a good thing to do.

Ha ha, now that would have been a funny picture in and of itself!

Some nice shots Darcy. I think #1 is my favorite also.

Andrey (Lionking) brings up an interesting point about the background being blurry. But there really is nothing else you could have done. You were probably panning with the helicopter? If the background had been sharp, I think the helicopter would have been blurry, especially in the low light with the longer shutter speeds. Nice job on getting some motion on the blades too. So I do like #3 with the helicopter.

Yes sir I was panning, & they flew over us so fast!
