New on 500px : Vertigo by geraldmacfly by geraldmacfly

The last time I uploaded this shot 500px was completely sluggish and I had to remove it, so I am reposting now that it seems that the site is working fine.
From my 1st helicopter ride over the city of San Francisco, what a fun time it was.

I wanted to merge together two of my favorites moments ever, golden hour and blue hour and this is what it looks like in one shot of Ponte Sisto along Tevere in Rome.

‘Magma’
I love getting lost in the little alleys of The Old Town at Downtown Dubai but it wasn’t until I flew over this development which really made me appreciate its incredibly inspired architecture and in particular, its lighting design. What an impression it made on me! Those glowing warm lights are incredibly inviting and the whole project feels like Arabian Nights magic, straight out of the Disney cartoon. It was incredibly rewarding to take my camera over there!
Technotes: I knew I wouldn’t have another chance to take this shot so I had to be absolutely sure to get it right the first time. It was night and chopper was heading back to the airport, pretty much in a straight line. We were going fast and I knew motion blur was going to be a a real challenge. I guessed that shutter speed of 1/60s would be just about fast enough to freeze the action. Barely just. Once I set the shutter speed, I opened the aperture of my Canon TS-E 24mm lens all the way to f3.5 and then I kept raising ISO until the exposure was right. It read 4,000! I didn’t know how good the picture would be at such high sensitivity. I was worried about excessive grain and highlight/shadow clipping which occurs with cranked-up ISO. There was nothing to be worried about though. Canon 5dmk3 pulled it off without any issues. Picture is sharp and exhibits very little noise even at 100% magnification. Very happy with the result!
