By nature, my project has a whole lot of trial and error involved. Every single time I arrive to a new shooting location, I must choose the right lens, set the correct focus, exposure, ISO, aperture, and ND filter setting, and I must time the photo correctly. The only real way to get this correct is by trying it, failing, adjusting, and repeating until I get what I am looking for. There’s no way to permanently overcome these failures as its a necessary step that I will encounter with every photoshoot I do. However, with more time and experience I’m sure I will have a better understand of the setting I need in each condition and will cut down the time this process takes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had the chance to do 3 shoots this past week at the top of Gateway Garage, Unity Station in Worcester, and in Winthrop with a view of Boston Logan Airport. Shown below are my initial photos taken when I arrived at each location side by side with the finished product after taking the perfect shot and editing it. As you can see, there is a drastic improvement between the finished product and the first attempt in every case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
