Im always amazed at the precision and mood you capture in your images. Even those of us that shoot digital wouldn't be able to capture the scene in the 2-3 frames that you probably took. I know you say that the exposure was unrecorded but was it seconds, minutes?
Compared to your previous dot district image i am drawn more to this one. There is a bit more contrast in the dots and the subtle color contrast of the blue scene and a little flare of red is killer.
Well done as usual

Tyler,
I'm pretty sure I was somewhere around 1.5 or 2 minutes on this one. I wouldn't have wanted to go much longer than that because the film starts running into issues with the shadows from reciprocity failure. The dots in this area were much more defined and concentrated than the area I shot last year, so they definitely show up much brighter. I have one more image from this series (sunrise) that I'll be posting in a week or so. It's certainly a different flavor for this spot.
Love everything about this pic. The simple composition that leads you to the last breath of a sunset. The vignette just adds to the settling of night. Great pic!

To me there is something very ominous about that image. It gives me the same feel I had one day I spent alone out in the back country of Capitol Reef in South Desert....
