On last Saturday night’s DC Photowalk, Bill brought two cameras with him. Since it was going dark for the entire photowalk, he didn’t bring his usual photowalk camera – the Graflex SLR with Fuji Instant Film. Instead, he brought a digital SLR and a Zeiss Ikon Twin Lens Reflex Camera. These are his photos from the digital camera –  we’re planning on posting the film photos once we get it developed and see what turns out.

For Bill’s first two photos, he experimented with hand-holding and moving his camera to get different effects with the light. The first photo is of a bicyclist riding across the mall – a long exposure combined with hand holding the camera conveys the motion of the bicyle wheels.

The second photograph is of the Rosslyn skyline taken from the Memorial Bridge. By hand-holding the camera and deliberately moving it diagonally, the static skyline became streaks of light.

Once we reached the Virginia side of the Memorial Bridge, Bill took some photos that are related to the ones I posted on Sunday. While I tried to capture static silhouttes of the photographers along the shore, Bill’s photo captures the motions people moved around to take their photos.

Like most of the rest of us on the photowalk, Bill did take a photograph of the Memorial Bridge leading across the river to the Lincoln Memorial. Most of us (including me) photographed the scene from the right-hand side of the Bridge. Bill waiting to take his photograph until we had passed under the bridge and took his from the left-hand side of the Memorial Bridge.

Once we crossed back to DC, Bill spotted some people standing along the side of the Lincoln Memorial. The lights on the Memorial caused them to cast some interesting shadows.

Bill’s final photo from the photowalk was taken at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. His photo captures a vistor to the Wall searching for a name.

Several photographers on the photowalk including Shawn Duffy, Mark Anderson, Marc Benton, Sherri Benton, Mike Palmer, and Dan Glass have started posting their photos on their blogs.  There are also lots more photos in the DC Nighttime Photowalk Flickr group. I love seeing how the other photographers on the photowalk captured the same sights Bill and I were photographing.
