Sledding on a HOT day

Jamie Bruce, 8, of Santa Monica, sleds down the sand berm on Monday, January 21, 2013 in Venice, Calif.  The Bruce family spent Martin Luther King Jr. Day at the beach enjoying the higher than normal temperatures for the area.

Santa Monica Beach

My Sunday night trip the beach included a camera a few lenses and a sturdy tripod.  My goal for my night shoot was to capture the ferris wheel on the Santa Monica Pier with pedestrians in the foreground while keeping all my subjects not looking like ants.  I was not getting the results I have intended, so I decided to change my strategy.  My new plan was to shoot the upper portion of the ferris wheel while leaving most of the frame open with sky.
