The Japanese Friendship Garden in downtown Phoenix opened its gates at night to what they called "Illumination 2020.". The pathways and lake were lit with colored lights, giving off a surreal feeling.
It was so very dark! I had to walk gingerly because the footpath was so hard to see.
I recently purchased the Canon EOS R6 and was anxious to test it out in extremely low light conditions. My lens was the Tamron 24-70mm. All images were captured with the lens fully open to f/2.8. I put the camera in AUTO ISO, knowing full well I might have some grain in the photos. Everything was hand held.
Post processing was done in Lightroom.
I do believe I'll do some additional low light photography in my own neighborhood as there are some lovely Christmas lights out!
Until My Next Adventure,
See you on down the road,
