Photo Showcase: Dominator at night


pkdcoaster

Recommended Posts

As you can imagine I was excited about our new Chainlift coaster this year and took many pictures of it over the summer. I never really did a TR but I thought these pics were too good not to share and since it is the middle of winter and not too many pics posted, I thought I would share them now.

 

Here is a link to the High quality versions of these pics

Enjoy, JEFF

Those pics are SWEET!!

 

It's also good to see Dominator get some love too. On the East Coast Tour I heard a lot of talk suggesting that folks thought that it was just a tad disappointing, or rather it looks better than it is. I rode it as B:KF at GL and loved it, and loved it every bit as much in its new location. Hooray for Dominator!

Whoa, those are really great.

 

How did you get all those awesome ghost/blur shots?

 

Most digital Cameras have a night setting and the more advance cameras have an option where you can adjust the shutter speed.

But the key to great night pictures is to have a Tripod.

You may look like a big geek (like me) carrying one around a park at night but that is the price you pay if you want good night pics.

 

As for Dominator being disappointing? I wonder what they were expecting?

yea it doesn't have a zero G roll (go to Volcano) but it has many unique features (doing more than just inversion after inversion) for a B&M looper that IMO make it one of the best.

 

/\ which one did you use for your dektop?

 

Thanks for all the compliments,

JEFF

AWESOME! Luckily I'm also one of the geeks who carries tripods around, but I'm mostly into video, however I got a new camcorder with amazing still features and a night feature, so I'll have to try that sometime.

Having to deal with a tripod in the park is one annoyance, but the main thing is sacrificing the ride time to get these shots.

 

I would only Sacrifice ride time at my home parks. You would never see me with a Tripod at CP or SFgrtadv. Pics are nice but riding is more important.

hey jeff great pics! I'm hoping to do some photos this summer and am looking at getting into some night time photography. I'm using bigstockphoto.com right now to try and sell photowork but as long as the photos don't have any logos or copyrights they are fine. I like the sunset shots, those are awesome.
