My Carnival Shots from today - 03-09-2008, 10:16 PM


I've been wanting to shoot a carnival for some time now and I finally got to go out to Valley View mall before it ended today. Today was the only day I was able to get out there and as soon as night fell the rain came so I only got a few shots.

We spent an hour preparing and tweaking settings, figuring which rides to shoot and at which angles we wanted and as soon as we began the rain began. Oh well, I manage to squeeze off a few shots so here they are.

Very cool stuff! Care to share a bit about your technique/equipment? I'd love to try it myself.

Thank you everyone. I actually used a tripod and shot at M mode, f/11, ISO 100, and used a Sigma 17-70mm HSM 2.8-4.5

Other than that nothing major.
