Shades of Blue

The skyline of San Diego, California is very photogenic and is best photographed from The Landing on Coronado Island.  In this image, I decided to limit my field of view and only include a few key buildings for a less seen vertical landscape shot.  It was dusk and I waited for the blue hue of the sky to match the hue of the water.  After a few test shots, I was ready.  A fairly long exposure time was used to smooth the water of the bay and a tripod was used to prevent camera shake.

I like how the reflections in the water draw the viewer's eye toward the city center in a Wizard of Oz kind of way.
