Dupont Circle, Night, looking North up Connecticut Avenue

A night shot done with my 5x12, standing inside Dupont Circle looking up Connecticut Avenue. The horizon lines appear crooked because I am slightly off-center relative to the circle so that I would not block traffic. The pavement in the foreground actually is an arc of a true circle. Being off-center to it distorts it, especially with a lens as wide as a Wollensak 159mm Ex.W.A. f12.5 .

Scott, I'm really digging this. It has wonderful atmosphere and feel. I'm not bothered by the tilt at all. In fact, I don't think I would have noticed unless you had pointed it out.

I like this very much but is it really so cold toned?
Just wondering what the Pt/Pd ratio is..

Man's it's been a long time..is that place on the right still a Starbucks?

I know this area well, too. (There's a great little Japanese restaurant over on P Street to your left, :tongue: or at least there was!!) Anyway...this has a great urban night feel to it, even though the traffic are just ghosts. Well done, Scott. And I like that it's slightly off center.

Scott, your pt/pd work is quite nice in general and this one is no exception...I like the feel and angularity and the since of presence..
