20. Zoom Zoom

by Chris on Jun.20, 2008, under Niagara Falls

This is a photo of a hanging basket taken at the Niagara Falls Camera Club outing this past week, where several of my images of the Niagara Skywheel were taken along with yesterday’s self portrait.  This is a gimicky technique of using a long shutter speed and zooming the lens during the exposure.  I think it works well for this photo as the Tivoli lights are obviously showing the zoom but many of the other objects still seem to be stationary.

17. Niagara Skywheel

by Chris on Jun.17, 2008, under Niagara Falls

Niagara Skywheel

This is a photo of the Niagara Skywheel in Niagara Falls, Canada.  I shot this last week on an outing with the Niagara Falls Camera Club to Clifton Hill.  The Ferris wheel is 183′ tall but with the help of a 10mm lens I was able to get most of the wheel in very close without too many obstructions.
