Piers & Pirate Ships

Dave Hook, Paul Berkloo and myself decided to try out some night shoots at the old beached ship at Jordan Station. This ship has been beached close to the marina for as long as I can remember. I thought i would be neat to try to get some night shots of the ship this time around and the guys were pretty excited about the idea too. We got there early enough to do some test shots and explore the area for some interesting compositions.

As soon as the stars started showing up I turned my attention to the ship. Using my 15mm lens to get the full ship in the shot I was pretty happy with the results and it was hard to choose my favourite one.

After exhausting every angle of the ship we decided to head home but not before one quick stop – 50 point pier.

It’s always tough to get night shots when large cities are around. The piers are no exception. With Hamilton in one direction…

…and Toronto in the other you will always have a glow. Although not always a bad thing it is always good to know that these will appear in your shots.
