Before Dawn, After Dusk

Took a little bit of time before and during a break in a long work day to take some shots in the pre-dawn light, and the early night today, involving my city’s lovely skyline.  As you can tell from the images below, the wind was quite a bit calmer this morning.  Both of the shots are with the Fuji 18-55, tripod mounted.  Interestingly, both are a 15 second exposure as well, but the first at f/14 and the second at f/11.

I also did a black and white conversion of the first shot, which I quite like, so take a look at that below:
