Smile Bridge over Swan River, Perth, WA

Hi all, this is my first thread here. I had to get up early on Saturday morning(4:30am) to give my son a lift to work, so thought I would take my Pentax K20D camera along which I bought only last month and give it a go in the early morning light and darkness. Did struggle a bit in the dark as I forgot to take a light and couldn't really see what I was doing, but anyway thought I would share the outcome of my first early morning pictures.

Hello Nick and a warm welcome to our friendly forums here at DPS. Wow what a way to start. That bridge is awesome and how well you have captured it. The reflections are amazing. I love the night day comparison.This is great work my friend and I look forward to seeing more of your work. Enjoy your time here and have fun.

Hi Nick, WELCOME to DPS
I like your night shot a lot...like someone said, it's easy on the eyes.

Welcome to DPS! Excellent first thread. I like the night shot and then the comparison in the day.
