Canon 24mm TSE: Austin, Texas Capitol Building II

More photos from downtown.

Confession time, I was actually trying to get a miniature effect from the top of this parking garage but I used the wrong aperture

One of those live and learn moments. Whih is also a good lesson, set your camera settings prior to arriving on location if you know you are there to achieve a specific shot or look. Sure, you should always check your settings anyway before shooting bu for some reason that day my brain had a short circuit

These first two once again represent a good example of a normal 24mm shot and then the same shot with the tilt/shift enabled. As you can see, it makes the dome much straighter than the normal 24mm shot (some of the normal 24mm shot might have been my fault having a sharp angle thus making the convergence seem that much more prevalent).

This was a quick grab, would have loved to have spent more time with it, perhaps trying a HDR but I was pressed for time as it was. The coloring is just a little artistic PS license.

This was using the tilt/shift to create some distortion, notice how elongated the dome of the capitol building is compared to the last shot.
