Bored after work + tripod + wide angle lens.

I left work rather late, so the parking lot was deserted. I was rather bored, but realized I had my tripod and camera with me. So I snapped these:







All of these were taken at f/8 with 6 seconds of exposure at 17mm zoom.

and what do you mean 6 seconds of exposure? Im new to the camera world so im trying to learn. Does that mean the shutter speed was at 6 seconds or something?

Yeah, first I forgot I had white balance set wrong after interior shots I took. I still have the raw files, which settings did you use? I am going through these pics in photoshop again now :-) I seemed to have the right setting worked out now. Will post the processed pics shortly.

Yeah, I do (this is their Santa Clara campus, not the Sunnyvale HQ which is a bit more impressive).
