A HDR of the garden.
3 Apr 2010 - Traveled 2 hours to 三渓園 at Yokohama for the 2nd part of my Sakura series. I worked till quite late on Friday and slept till noon on Saturday. I reached there at around 2pm and the lens I used was EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM.
Afternoon light was real bad, colors turned out plain
Ducks crossing
Experimental Shot. Over-expose on purpose
B&Ws that I am working on recently
Sakuras
More scenery shots of the garden.
The main landmark of the garden
I didn't know that this place has lightup at night, so I didn't bring my tripod.
At around 4:50pm, there were so many photographers setting up their stands and waiting. Curious about what they are waiting for, I waited along...
At 5pm, I like the lights...but I forgot to remove my circular polarizer! so slightly underexposed
This is the image I used to make the HDR at the top of this post.
Evening sky.
After waiting for more than an hour, at 6.11pm, it was so dark that I had to set ISO to 1600.
Finally at 6:40pm, the lights were up. nice...but not really worth the 2 hours wait, at least not without a tripod.
