New Year's Eve at the CapitolThis is what the California State Capitol Building looked like on New Year's Eve 2014. The state Christmas tree, with it's beautiful star tree-topper is on the right.
This was taken with my very special Christmas present, a new Nikon D5300 camera with kit 18-55mm and 55-300mm lenses. I also have learned how to stack images in Photoshop, and this image is a stacked collection of 5 images in total. These were taken at ISO 2000 with the telephoto lens at at f/10 @ 1/20 sec; f/4.5 @ 1/160 sec, 1/80 sec, 1/40 sec, and 1/25 sec to give a variety of exposures for the stacked result.

Sacramento Photowalk: McCormick & Schmick's at Night (DSC00776)
I had planned to attend the Sacramento photowalk the night before, but couldn't attend. So the following night my dad and I went on our own brief photowalk and these are the results. Mc Cormick & Schmick's 1111 J Street Sacramento, CA 95814 (916) 442-8200 Located in the southwest the corner of the Elks Lodge building, this is a popular upscale restaurant and bar with a great neon sign. Taken from the southwest corner of the 11th and J streets intersection. LICENSING ©2008-2009 by Will Murray ("Willscrlt") willmurray.name/ This photo is CC-BY-SA-3.0-US licensed.

Celebrate the New Year (2008-12-31 DSC00880)Celebrate the New Year, but please celebrate responsibly! Pick a designated driver or take a taxi. Don't drink and drive.
I stopped by Costco this morning to pick up a pumpkin pie for tonight's dinner (probably the last one for the season *cry*). I thought that these wine bottles might make a nice photo. Ironically, I didn't buy any alcohol. We will be celebrating the new year with sparkling peach juice. Yummy!
The warehouse lights are not the best lighting, so I touched up the color a bit in Photoshop on my laptop--the first time I've used my laptop for color tweaking, so hopefully its calibration is pretty close to right. I also blanked out the prices and item numbers on this low-res image to make it a bit more reusable.

Sacramento Photowalk: Sacramento Elk's Lodge at Night - Distant (DSC00771)
I had planned to attend the Sacramento photowalk the night before, but couldn't attend. So the following night my dad and I went on our own brief photowalk and these are the results. A view of the Elks Lodge building from the southern side of J street between 10th and 11th street. This block is filled with vacant, boarded up storefronts and hotels. I was glad that I wasn't alone taking these pictures, though there was nothing particularly alarming about the people we saw.
