DFW Nightscapes - past 2 weeks

Post by XMENPorsche »

I've spent my last couple of Saturday nights doing some night shooting around Dallas/Ft. Worth.

Here's the Fort Worth skyline followed by a couple from the Fort Worth Water Gardens.

These next few are from Dallas last night. I didn't have a wide enough angle lens to capture the whole skyline in one shot from where I was shooting. Here are few of portions of the skyline.

These last couple are from a place in a Dallas suburb called Highland Park. Lakeside Park is in this suburb, and inside Lakeside Park is a place called Teddy Bear Park. Very large teddy bear sculptures there. This first shot is of a couple of the bears. I applied a midnight sepia action to the image, then did a bit of dodging to bring the bears back out. In my mind the jury is still out on this one. The second shot is of a bridge crossing the lake leading over to the teddy bears.

Thanks for looking!

Wow!

Got some great stuff there bud. :)

Makes me homesick for the Big D.

Maybe this fall I can get up there, I have a self assigned project I want to do up on Forest Lane. There's a brick wall that some of my fellow seniors painted back in 1976, that I'd like to shoot as one giant pano.

I particularly like the downtown and water garden shots.

Thanks, guys!

Gambit - which downtown? Got Dallas and Fort Worth in there.

Defiance - if you make it up here this fall let me know. We'll go do some shooting (if your time allows).
