6. Nikon D5100, Tripod
This was a difficult shot to get without a long zoom. This was as zoomed in as I could get. The sky was cloudy, and the sun was coming in behind me, so there was a lot of bight light in the sky. I had to play with the ISO levels to get this shot to have the cool feel with the bright sky.

This was my first shot of the night. I wanted to see more blur in the background but was unable to make this happen. I was intrigued by the highly saturated colors, and I attempted to bring them out in this photo in Camera Raw.

As I was packing up for the night, I saw the setting sun cast some dramatic light on the temple, so I hurried and took a few shots. High ISO and a fast shutter speed lead to the colors that I wanted instead of a white streak.

I was looking for motion to freeze without having people stand in for a jumping photo, which I think is extremely tacky. I found the water and decided that it would suffice. Of of my favorite photos this week. Low ISO, quick shutter speed,
