I absolutely love the old buildings on Main Street in Quartzsite, Arizona. While visiting family for Thanksgiving, I enjoyed low angled light one evening and the sunrise the next morning while I captured these old buildings, cacti and interesting textures along Main Street in this charming southwestern town. I used my Nikon D7000 and Manfrotto tripod to take three different exposures of the scene. Then I merged the three shots together for this High Dynamic Range exposure effect. The cool blues/purples in the sky provided a good contrast for the warm orange sunlight. Don’t forget your camera as you take a stroll down Main street in this favorite snowbird destination.
