Stevie Ray Vaughan and the Austin Skyline Sunset

I’ve been meaning to do a more current photo of the Stevie Ray Vaughan statue for awhile. The challenge is getting the rather dark statue to pop out from the evening sky. This image is a combination of light painting & HDR. I did three long exposures of Stevie while lighting the statue and surrounding area with my super duper mini flashlight. You can see my other photos of the Stevie statue here.

Austin Skyline from the Long Center
by John Rogers on Jan.05, 2010, under Architectural Photography, Architecture, Austin Texas
One of my favorite views of the Austin Skyline is from the large patio in front of the Long Center for the Performing Arts. (Preferably with a glass of wine during the intermission of a performance.) The arc surrounding the patio provides a perfect frame to the city. Unfortunately the format of my website doesn’t really do a panorama justice. In fact, typically I tend to find myself shooting more ‘portrait format’ (tall and skinny vs. short & wide) images simply because they allow me to show a larger image on the page.
