Upde Designs

I’ve become quite the home body in the evening.  So I sometimes forget that there is usually something going on in the city.  Last night around 9:30 p.m.  Jeanne and I went out to do some night city scape photography.  I’ve taken a class on night photography and I must confess I’m still not very good at it.

We found this little park that Jeanne used to watch the fireworks from when the kids were little.  It offers a nice view of downtown Dubuque, the river, and the surrounding city scape.  It also offered a nice view of the Julian Dubuque Bridge and all the traffic that crosses it 24 / 7.

This last image is a five shot HDR image that I’m not very happy with.  I don’t do much night photography so I do not have the experience needed to do a really good job.  I want to keep practicing it because some of the most dramatic images I’ve seen of late are night photos.

I did a bike ride yesterday, if you want to see the images from that ride just click on the biking link on the right side of this blog.  That’s it for today.  Enjoy your Sunday.  Monday will be here before you know it.  Thanks for stopping by and be careful.
