Re: PESO San Antonio Lights

That is a nice shot, I like the snow scene. I assume that is a somewhat rare occurrence in Raleigh? One can pretty easily find variants of my picture, it is taken from the top of a parking garage and by just being observant you can realize that would make for a pretty good place to get some

Left the first one up on the screen overnight so it was the first thing I saw this morning when I came in here where the computer is ... Got me wondering. There's a image of Raleigh that I'm sure every photographer that lives here has tried to capture one time or another. My version:

Re: PESO San Antonio Lights

Nice shots, but I really prefer the K3 rendition. To my eye the wider angle view, bringing in the two converging highways, make for a more engaging composition. Mark On 11/23/2021 10:55 PM, Corey Leopold wrote: Took the K3 III out for the first time tonight

Yes this is true, but it also isn't downtown and like the Pentagon is low rise (4 stories) just has a very horizontal spread. And it is on a campus that if you didn't know better you would think it was Military. On Thu, Nov 25, 2021 at 7:51 PM Daniel J. Matyola wrote: > Of course, San Antonio

I don't know whether I have photos of it -- I certainly have B shots taken with my KX along the river and at the Alamo .. may have color too.. I'll check out Hotel HAvana on google and look at my contact sheets On 11/25/2021 8:31 PM, Corey Leopold wrote: I'm not sure, especially what was

Of course, San Antonio has the largest single-occupancy office building in the world, an office complex bigger than even the Pentagon. Dan Matyola *https://tinyurl.com/DJM-Pentax-Gallery * On Thu, Nov 25, 2021 at 8:32 PM Corey Leopold wrote: > I'm not

Re: PESO San Antonio Lights

I'm not sure, especially what was where in the 1970s. Possibly the Hotel Havana which would have been there then, it is a bit up the river from the main tourist area and small like 27 rooms. But I'm sure there are other properties that could fit that description also. And 1976 would have been

Re: PESO San Antonio Lights

Corey... I said earlier I took my Mom the San Antonio in 1974 around CHristmas... (She was living in Houston then ) I found my travel journal and it turns out it was 1976 (still before that tall Marriot was there) My aunt had a friend who had recommened accomodations.. this is what I wrote

Re: PESO San Antonio Lights

actually.. I was referring to the big one on the far left .. didn't see the other Marriott saying Marriot on it. I would not have chosen a HIlton to stay in.. I have to look.  I know our windows were right on the river and I think only one or two stories abouve the paseo Details at 11 :-) ann

Re: PESO San Antonio Lights

So you're referring to the building in the Middle which is the Marriott Riverwalk and was built in 1979, the building on the left with Marriott on the top is the Marriott Rivercenter which was built in 1988. Yes there are two Marriotts across the street from each other. The building on the right

Re: PESO San Antonio Lights

I think the dynamic range is better, but I believe Larry was right, the old one also isn't in great focus, after he said that I went and looked back at others from that night and they were much better focused. Not sure what I did with that one, but it was also the only frame I took of that view

Re: PESO San Antonio Lights

Rick, if you scroll down when you are on the page you will see of tech info and Clicking on SEE EXIF , more than you could absorb :-) I like the photography... but I hate those tall glass buildings.. and am grateful that at least the Marriott was not there when I took my mother to San Antonio

Re: PESO San Antonio Lights

I like both shots, but expecially the recent one. How much difference do you think is the electronics, and how much is technique? Were you shooting RAW/DNG or JPG? Rick > On Nov 23, 2021, at 10:55 PM, Corey Leopold wrote: > > Took the K3 III out for the first time tonight > >
