[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I have been wanting to shoot the Husson bell tower for quite some time, but things never seemed to work out.

I am QUITE scared of High ISO's, especially n my Maxxum 5D, so I have been waiting to get a tripod and one of the school's 20D's to do this. Then the opportunity hit, and I had to do it... I shot at 1600... Goodness...

I originally started shooting at 3200 because I had my polarizer on from earlier and didn't realize it, then, when I got it off, I went down to 1600. All in all, its just a sunset, nothing more.

I probably should have got it a bit earlier, the sky is getting dark, and I tried a slightly longer exposure, but I blew the snow out. So this is the best of the set.

All hand held. In camera stabilization...

I like it.

Did some noise reduction in CS3. Strength at 7, Color at 85% and Sharpening at 85%.

I didn't realize until I did this, just how many hot pixels I had... Gah! A bit a healing brush to fix them and all is well....
