[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken with my trusty D70 from the mountain top at Pão de Açucar in Rio de Janeiro.

This required a time lapse exposure of 5 seconds, as it was quite dark. I purposefully over-exposed the shot to bring out the lights and the sky (especially the clouds).

On this trip to Brazil I decided to shoot all my photos in manual mode, which was a lot of fun.

Enjoy!

nice colors, foucs is a bit soft, cables are a nice touch. clouds are great.

Your over-exposed shot delivered. The photo is postcard material. The menacing clouds and great sunset were essencial in making this one of your best photos.

Hi Joe,

Wonderful view of Pão-de-Açugar. I love the POV. Well done!

Wow!!! Fantastic photo!!!

Hi,
It was a good choice to wait this 5 seconds, the view is magnificent. (You gave me a good idea to use the manual mode more often...)
