City stars<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve got 4 pictures for today. I attempted to do a bit more of the night photography, but that type of work does require a tripod. Even when you have a solid base to put your camera on. In fact, my base was too solid – it was a part of the building outside the window. The problem with it was that I couldn’t adjust it in any matter what-so-ever.<\/p>\n

Today’s sunrise was amazing. There were no ships in the sea and the colors of the sun and clouds were very contrastish. Sun was also very red. The kind you get at sunsets, not sunrises.<\/p>\n
