I captured this just as the sun was setting over Tempe Town Lake and almost twilight. The Mill Ave Bridge is on the left and the Phoenix Light Rail Bridge on the right. Feel free to use just please give me credit and let me know where.

The falling star across the sky is actually a jet taking off from Sky Harbor Airport. I thought the reflection of it on the lake looked like star dust.

The rail bridge actually changes colors as trains roll over. I will be posting a video of this sometime in the future.

No Photoshop this is a Raw image right out of the 5D Mark II camera proccessed using Canon Digital Photo Professional to JPEG.

My only regret with this shot is the power lines running right through the middle, have no idea why the city of Tempe let these be put in there instead of running around or underground. Perhaps one day I will do a Photoshop version and remove the lines.

"Twas was my very first professional photo I took before I went and bought my SLR"

I still remember taking it. Bokeh was impossible at the time so I shook the camera with low light while on focus to cause a blur effect with a 3 second timer. Twas a trick I discovered while trying to record a video with my digital camera. I did not have Photoshop nor did I know how to use it at the time, so I used whatever my computer had. I didn't really have to do much cause the effect I needed was there.

Everything is great at its ripest - - regardless of the lack of skill and equipment, you have the passion and creative mind to take the best photo
