City Lights


One of the things I imagined doing with my camera after I got it was experimenting with time-lapse photography. So I borrowed my father's tripod and headed down to Mizner Square, in downtown Boca Raton. I aimed my camera toward the street, waited for some cars to head by, and pressed the shutter release button. I didn't have a cable release, so I just held the button with my hand, trying to count the seconds and hoping that I wasn't shaking the frame too much. This was one of the more successful results, and I'm pleased with it.
