Recently, the Big Guy and I went downtown in search of things to photograph. Today’s SWF features the Hippodrome State Theatre.

I was playing with my camera settings on this one. Can’t remember what I did.

Same shot take with auto and natural color.

The Hipp is housed in the historic Federal Building.
For more Sky Watch visit Tom.

Interesting to see the differences in photos. Both are very good. I like ‘historical’ places. Good Sky Watch.

Nice post for sky watch. I like the latter pic with longer aperture time.
