This shot is from Las Vegas on the Strip. I went up there for a day, and it was Hot! Driving out there, it was 120 degrees at times. The A/C quit working for a bit, then mysteriously started working again. And on the way back, the idler pully broke, destroying one of the belts. Do you know what sucks worst than the A/C not working in 115-degree heat? Yep. A car breaking down. It took two hours to get a tow truck while we sat, broken down under the only tree near Primm. Not fun. I’m just so glad I brought a ton of water. What an adventure.
I have a few other fun Las Vegas shots that I’ll post soon. I’ve been playing around with all the amazing HDR features you can get from the Magic Lantern firmware on the Canon cameras. I’ve been shooting a lot with five shots at +-1.5EV. It’s been working great. Going to +-2EV at five exposures is usually overkill for most situations. The brightest shot will be almost all white, and the darkest is almost black. But in some dynamic sunsets, it works fine.
