Day 022, Year 4 - Last Minute Light Trails In Abu Dhabi

Best viewed large, on black if you have time :)

Not exactly last-minute, but I was trying to quickly get a shot this evening so I could go meet colleagues for a brief drink in the bar this evening before retiring to my room. My battery also ran out so I was happy to get a few frames in the can before that.

This big wheel is near my hotel, outside the local shopping mall and after seeing it on day 1, I thought I would try and get a shot with some slow shutter action. I can see a lot wrong with it; I could have done with my ND filter as the shutter speed wasn't long enough to create a lovely long trail without gaps in the wheel itself, but I still quite like it anyway. It's my first attempt at doing a big wheel at night like this.

3 good things:

1 - Some lovely weather once the fog burnt away
2 - Good to finish the day's golf coverage after a delayed start this morning due to the fog
3 - A drink in the bar with colleagues this evening
You are rockin' it lately!! Super trails and lights! Marvelous!
