M5 goes to the Nation's Capitol (Washington DC) for a time blend
14

This is a manually blended composite of 3 images...partially to mitigate the limited dynamic range of canon's beloved APS-C sensor, and partially to capture multiple moments in time into one image (sunset, early blue hour, and late blue hour).

Capitol Building in Washington DC. 3 exposure time blend.

I have provided the source images below:

Image exposed for the building itself.

Long exposure of the sky at sunset with 10+4 stop stacked ND filters for 1 min 15 sec exposure.

Later blue hour shot - used solely to 'turn on the lights' in the composite.
