Went out last night to shoot Oklahoma City's ferris wheel in the appropriately named Wheeler District. It's a wheel with a history, just not a local one. It was purchased in 2008 on ebay. But this is not just any old ferris wheel on ebay, this is "THE" wheel from Santa Monica Pier. The thing has been in movies, tv shows and commercials for years! I got there right as the park was closing for the evening so I only got 1 or 2 shots of the wheel lit up. However, there was a lot of light in the area from the surrounding buildings. All these shots are done with existing light and long exposures. It was completely dark outside. The shots with color look like daylight because of the light reflecting off the clouds and the white balance settings. You'll notice the stars in them if you look close enough.
