Hey Armando- hello from fellow Miamian!!! Those are really nice shots. You have made me want to duplicate them when I can get out of the house again. Can you tell me the shutter and ISO if available? Love the picture of government cut, downtown Miami and American Airlines arena. I have shot from just about every site in town. Running out of locations. Good work!!!

Just looked and that show was at iso1600 1/5 second f9 it was windy so on a calmer day your iso can come down and use a lower shutter.

Many thanks. Why f/9- could have gone down to lower f/stop without loss of depth of field and used lower ISO, but hey, I can just put her up in the air and experiment until I get the right image. Thanks again.

Needed the depth of field as I wanted it all to be in focus.

For future reference, everything is already clearly in focus to infinity if the focus is preset at anything beyond 30 feet, even at f/2.8. Try it.

Awesome images! Thumbswayup

Particularly love the 3rd image. I've given this a try in the past myself and failed miserably. Need to figure it out as the pictures have a real wow factor.

Well done.

Composition, subject matter, and colored lights that show up dramatically in the nocturnal photo, all captured with a perfect exposure! Thumbswayup
