Camera: Olympus E-30
Lens: Olympus 12-60mm f/2.8-4.0 Zuiko
Date: Nov 2, 2009
Aperture: 2.8
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1.6
Galleries: Cityscape
Date Uploaded: Nov 4, 2009

 Taken from outside my "TEMPORARY" home 30 floors above the streets of Chicago. Out the door of my hotel room, left turn down one hallway, right turn down another and then turn left again into alcove containing the elevators, look out through the window before you and this is what you would see.

Granted, some steps were big, and some were small, but doable as 35-6-6.

Converted from raw; saturation; curves; noise reduction; cloned out a few distracting elements; slight burning of distracting elements; noise reduction; format size; v.v. slight sharpening

cool night shot. i dont know if its legal in advanced but maybe doing a bracketed exposure and masking in a better exposed moon wouldve improved the shot for me

This is a VitaminB!
Well who knows there are so many Toronto night shots from so many Canadian photogs. Crisp clear exposure, slow shutter to capture some motion and reflection. Beaut shot! Can't vote but 8-9.
