Alvin Tenpo > Palace of Fine Arts, San Francisco, CA Shot with a wide angle lens (Nikon 12-24mm, f4) at 18mm, f5 for 9 seconds. Aperture priority and matrix metering. As with all low light photography, I mounted the camera on a tripod, used a cable release and mirror lockup. Bracketed the shots and chose the exposure that I like the best. Adjusted the white balance with Adobe Camera Raw processor to 4600K. Shot during the blue hour.

Alvin Tenpo > Palace of Fine Arts, San Francisco, CA I lightened the sky in post processing with Photoshop curves to bring out the blue. The unadjusted sky, though blue, was so dark to the point of almost being black.
Alvin Tenpo > The Six Sisters (aka Painted Ladies), plus a step sister at the lower end. I'd like to reshoot this on a different evening, from higher up on the hill. A higher location will block out the row of cars parked on the street and expand the background view of the city skyline. So many people take this photo, there are circular dead spots on the grass from overuse by photographers and sightseers. Nonetheless, I like having my own shot.
