POTD - Aperture - 2/5/08

This is just a sample of what aperture can do. It was storming. I was sitting in my car waiting to get through the City on my way home from work. I had a bus in front of me and I decided to take a shot of the snow piled on the hood of my car and at the same time I wanted to get a neat effect of the lights with a wider aperture. The yellow, orange and red are the lights on the back of a bus.

Nikon D70s ISO 800; 1/200; f2

That;s a pretty cool shot. I was trying to figure out what the lights were. Never would have guessed it was a bus.
