Looking at yesterday's photo again, I must tell a quick story. The night I shot both today's and yesterday's photo, it took me four attempts before I timed the big "1" to be lit up as it is today. It's a three sided neon lighted sign and each bank is lit up one at a time to save energy and the cost to run all three sides at once. Getting the timing down to take a photo of it proved to be a challenge in the cold temperatures. In the end, I actually preferred the unlit photo better. It's a capture of this tower at night that I had never seen before. Plus the neon lights were very bright in the photo, but being as it was very cold out, I didn't want to tweak my camera settings any longer.
Which do you prefer?

The one lit up does draw you to the 1st away from the building, they both are good shots. I like yesterdays best I guess, because even though its at night, theres enough light to see the 1st sign.
ReplyDeleteI like the shot where the #1 is NOT lit up, don't know why...just do :) lighting is so good.
ReplyDeleteI like this 1! (sorry couldn't help myself) I love neon.
ReplyDeleteBoth are great shots. I really like the lit up one. Glad you stuck it out to get the shot, its very nice.
ReplyDeleteBoth of them are great, but I believe I like the unlit one best. They remind me of Superman on TV.
