I am using HDR technique to captured both of these photos. Using my sigma 20mm f/1.8 lens on nikon d90 body. I wish to have a wireless remote for capturing night photos in BULB setting for greater effect.

  1. The architecture is absolutely breathtaking. You are so talented, If I wasn’t such a poor old woman I’d buy you all the equipment your little heart desires. Obviously you would make the best use possible of it.

    You do pretty darn good with the camera you have now. Thank you so much for sharing.
