Baha'i Sunset Glow

The Baha'i Temple glowing from the light shining on it, the interior warm lighting, and the last bit of sunset as the blue hour sets in. Taffy and I always marvel at how our side by side photography produces similar yet different outcomes: she used a tripod, I did not (it was freezing cold and I had already folded mine up and was heading to the car) so I had to go with significantly higher ISO; she's a Nikon shooter, and I'm Canon shooter.

Clearly, she is adept at Lightroom and used perspective correction!

Great blue hour shot!! Being a Baha'i I've been there a few times, but not since the gardens have been redone.

[Taffy]

Simply superb! I love the way it glows. I'm gong to post mine tomorrow as I still have some stuff to work on with it. What a great day!
