I rarely use the Automatic Exposure Bracketing featuring on my camera but found a chilly evening in March a good opportunity to try it out on the Monona Terrace. If you turn 180°, you would get this image. This image is the original with the upcoming ones having the exposure set one stop over and under exposed.

Exposure: 1.3 sec, Aperture: f/5.6, Focal Length: 28 mm, ISO 200

A nighttime view of the captial building from the corner of Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. and E. Wilson Street in Mad Town.

Exposure: 1.300 sec, Aperture: f/5.6, Focal Length: 28 mm, ISO 200

This statue sits in front of the Qwest Center in Omaha, NE and has a little bit of everything; some figures, a clock, and some balls.

Exposure: 1/13 sec, Aperture: f/3.5, Focal Length: 28 mm, ISO 800

A closeup of the glass Desert Dome from last week.

Exposure: 1/320 sec, Aperture: f/11, Focal Length: 95 mm, ISO 200

Took a few pictures of the Basilica of Saint Mary in Minneapolis on a foggy afternoon. Certainly not one of my favorites as it gives me a feeling of “blahs”.

Exposure: 1/250 sec, Aperture: f/5.0, Focal Length: 65 mm, ISO 200

The Desert Dome is part of the Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha, NE. I took this in the early afternoon so the sunlight was pretty harsh. Of course, that gave me a good excuse to mess around edit a bit in Lightroom.

Exposure: 1/2000 sec, Aperture: f/4.0, Focal Length: 41 mm, ISO 200

I spent a week in Omaha as was able to see the sunrise hitting the Qwest Center everyday. Although actually, it’s more of a picture of the clouds and color of the sky than the actual building itself.

Exposure: 1/320 sec, Aperture: f/8.0, Focal Length: 28 mm, ISO 200

I spent an evening in Madison last month and was able to spend a little time hanging out downtown by the Capital building. I boosted the red color in the sky and darkened the overall tone using Lightroom.

Exposure: 1/2 sec, Aperture: f/22, Focal Length: 135 mm, ISO 200

The view of downtown Omaha from my hotel room. I used a pillow as a “tripod” and the self timer since the exposure was 30 seconds.

Exposure: 30.0 sec, Aperture: f/22, Focal Length: 28 mm, ISO 200
