City of Champions


On June 2nd I decided to drive to Pittsburgh and get some photos from Mt Washington. Since the Pens were playing that night for the Stanley Cup at Mellon Arena, I figured the city would be lit up pretty well. As it turned out the Pirates were also playing at home so PNC was also lit up, the only thing missing was some lights at Heinz Field. The photo I have here is a panorama I made in Photoshop with 4 images taken that night and merged together. It was pretty windy and I have a cheap tripod so the pic isn't as sharp as I would have liked it. I used my Nikon 14-24 f2.8 lens on the Canon 1DsMKIII camera body. The original image is 12 inches high by 50 inches long when printed, however this images is a much scaled down version.
