Those are great shots Cynthia. I am with Mike, what lens did you use? How much time passed between shots?

Nice work.

If you could somehow blend the sky of the first one with the lighted buildings of the second, wow. However, the second is really nice with all the reflection. Was it windy?

It wasn't windy at all. (I was the bodyguard whilst the chicks were shooting.) The mosquitos almost carried us away, but it wasn't windy.

It was amazing to see how quickly the light changed.

It was great to finally meet you, although I was a bit intimidated by your Karate shirt. ;)

Now..... GET SOME FIOS INTO MY NEIGHBORHOOD!!!!! (I feel better now)
