Daytonphotog

ColDayMan - great shot. Having the light at the top of Kettering Tower certainly helps pull that dark building out of the night sky. I hope to get some snow shots before winter is over.... preferably in a temperature above single digits. Maybe see you out there!

OHKID, I take no offense and wouldn't be above using Photoshop to help an image along if needed. Living through the age of film, I simply love having that wonderful tool to use (photoshop). I also will take luck any day. But it is usually the time taken to scout for locations even at different times of day, that contribute to the success of these images. I hope to have more time to browse through this site more in the future to see what other people are up to. Also, as a side note, I have sold this image several times to clients who do want to represent Dayton as their hometown in their promotions. So, this and other images of mine are helping in their small way to do just that. Happy holidays to all, hope to check in more after the season settles down. Thanks for including my link with the image ColDayMan, nice to get acknowledged, I do have to watch out for unauthorized usage (particularly commercial application) Cheers

Hi, the photo was taken from Good Samaritan ( I took it) not much photoshop done though as mentioned I did darken some of the distracting non-distinguisable light areas within Grafton Hills, sharpening, etc. Not too long of lens used as I wanted context, about a 300mm. Glad you like it. The key is getting just the right time of day. Nice to meet you all!
