Redwood Shores, CA

Oracle Campus by Night
~
I had been shooting the campus from a little farther East and was just walking back to the car, camera and tripod in hand when I looked back and saw this view. I thought to myself "Why not, one more shot." This is what I got. I'm kicking myself because I framed it so tightly at the top. Had I left more sky, I would be able to apply some perspective correction to straighten out the left end. As it is, Oracle is considering this image for use in its annual report. Another example of why one should "wait until the light is gone" before leaving a twilight shoot.

Nikon D3 ,Nikkor 14mm f/2.8D ED AF
30s f/10.0 at 14.0mm iso800 full exif

Very true. Some of the best light often comes long after the sun has set. And just as easily behind you if you get caught up looking where the sun used to be. A lot of great shots get missed by those who pack up early.
