Pike Place Market | Seattle

Pike Place Market

After photographing an engagement session yesterday, I was going home and decided to stop by Seattle’s Pike Place Market to take a couple of shots with my new lens. This picture above was shot with a Sigma 12-24mm lens at 24mm | F/16 for 15 seconds. I think the lens is pretty sharp. The 12mm side is extremely wide and interesting to shoot at. I need to get used to shooting it at that angle. I wish the white SUV wasnt parked where it’s at on the left, but I didn’t feel like moving it.

Pike Place Market with Sigma 12mm

I wasn’t happy with how I framed the color shot above at 12mm so I cropped about 1/3 of the sky out of the picture. It gives you an idea of how wide 12 mm looks though!

  2. Hey Lil, U know these types of shots can be done with your Oly. You just need a tripod, set your AV mode to like around f/16 and play around with how many seconds of shutter speed!
