Minneapolis Photographer Mitch Rossow presents daily photos of Minneapolis. Cityscapes, People & Perspectives: Mitch explains composition and techniques.

While I was on the bridge taking yesterday’s shot, a photographer with a better view gave me a friendly wave. This was tricky shot with a 500mm lens, shooting a moving target and being ready to not look at the sun.

Not the case with a 500mm SLR, you can burn a hole right through the back of your skull with that thing; so, Heads Up!
