What a beautiful (probably smog enhanced) sunset at my friends house here in Larkspur. Wasn’t focusing too much on photos (more on just chilling after a tough couple of weeks) but was able to capture several with a 55mm prime f1.8 Carl Zeiss lens.
Going for the shallow depth of field to blur the background. f1.8, 1/6400, iso100, 55mm.Rampart Range, Perry Park and Devils Head. f8, 1/160, iso100, 55mmDevils Head and contrail. f8, 1/125, iso100, 55mmDevils Head and “X” marks the spot! f8, 1/60, iso125, 55mm.Love how the moon flares with this lens. 15sec, iso1600.We were watching for the eta Aquariids shooting stars, and it was time to go home, so I made a fireball :). This is actually the moon. 15 sec, iso1600.These are fairly noise due to the digital zoom with the 55mm lens. I’ll go back and shoot these with a telephoto sometime. This is the Front Range west of Denver. f8, 1/60, iso160, 55mmAnother perspective. Lookout Mountain in Golden is in the lower left. f8, 1/60, iso200, 55mm.
