A few shots I took while walking back from Dinner in Dunners on Wed night.... need to work on the flare a bit...

And I kinda want to get a Tilt Shift lens too :-)

been south for a week right time of year for sunsets and sunrises

mob: Loving your 4-shot set AgrAde. You appear like some kind of philosopher with that. Coathanger one makes sense of it all to me. Deep and real. :quadthumbsup:

1st shot
Sigma 14mm f2.8 Prime
ISO 100
20s @ f6.3
EOS 20D

2nd Shot
I took a few... I had a big light behind me and it keep ending up over exp[osed.. On reflectio it was light through the viewfinder causing me issues... but I just dialed back the EV 1.5 stops.
Sigma 14mm f2.8 Prime
ISO 100
15s @ f6.3
EOS 20D

In both cases I just had the camera on the ground propped up by some flter cases... Couldn't get to the viewfinder so just point the ens in the general direction :-)
A perspective control lens would have been nice... as woud a triod with a decent head... Had my Gorillapod in the back but that's no good for portrait orientation.

Do many of you guys use an additional flash (not the pop up one) for a lot of your works?

Saving to get a Flash Gun....

I use the onboard flash as a fill in flash mainly.

Great pics, they'd be great as liners on a CD cover I reckon. Very cool!
