Traffic in Knoxville at Night

Night traffic is always interesting as long as you are not stuck in it. I used a very long exposure to capture the movement of the traffic. The white lines are the vehicles moving toward the camera with head lights showing. The red lines are the tail lights of traffic going away from the camera. The camera was set at f-16 to give me a long exposure of 7 seconds with the ISO set at 100. Notice how the street lights have a star effect caused by the tiny lens opening of f-16. LynnFreeny.com

Knoxville Street Lights in the Fog

Fog makes everything look interesting. This image of a street in Knoxville is a good example of what I am talking about. Fog is made up of small water particles that act like millions of tiny mirrors that reflect any light source , in this case the orange street lights. LynnFreeny.com

Traffic Through the Fence

When it seems like I am in a not so inspiring place with a camera some people ask me the question," What are you taking a picture of ?". This image was taken along Interstate 40 in Knoxville, Tennessee. Shooting at f2.8 I was able to cause the lights to balloon out of focus creating an interesting background for the chain link fence. I used a tripod because the shutter speed was 1/2 second. Remember beautiful images are everywhere so get out there and get inspired. LynnFreeny.com

Knoxville's Gay Street Bridge at Night

Night photography is interesting in a city. If it is raining you get the bonus of reflections from the wet streets. In this image I was stopped at a red light. I looked to the right and saw a row of street lights, car lights and glowing signs in the background . With a 200 mm lens I knew I could compact the information and include all the interesting elements. LynnFreeny.com

Knoxville at Sunset

My favorite light occurs in the evening and morning. At these particular times of day most things look more interesting. Why? Maybe it is because you only see this quality of light once a day. This is an evening image of Knoxville Tennessee at sunset. LynnFreeny.com

Glowing Truck in Knoxville

No one likes heavy traffic, including me. But when you get stuck it is always good to have a camera. As I slowed to a stop I quickly pulled out my camera to capture the reflection of the sunset of the back of this big rig. Most of the highway was in shadows causing a large difference in the color temperature from the glowing truck. LynnFreeny.com
