- Hi, we're here at the Lincoln Memorial
in Washington, D.C. and we're going to try
and get an unusual 360 shot.
Just to do something a little bit different.
So, I have the, little ninja pole,
ready to get it up about maybe 12 or 15 feet or so,
just to get above the crowd.
We're getting a little bit creative
because we're normally not allowed to shoot
in this location.
We do have a permit to be here.
However, even the permit limits us to going
above these stairs over here.
So, what I decided to do was shoot
from the base of the stairs,
but we're gonna really raise it up high
and try to do something kind of unusual.
We did it.
We're at the Lincoln Memorial,
we passed the test of the permits.
So, I raised the pole up about 15 feet
and I did bracketed shots because there's still
quite a bit of difference in the light here.
There's a bright lights over there,
and the sun's behind the memorial here.
So, I did a five shot bracket.
The slowest speed was about 160th of a second,
so I don't see any problems with,
hopefully, we don't have problems with
the movement of the people
and there's a little bit of movement in the pole
because I was really quickly rotating and shooting
just to get it done,
but I don't see a problem there either.
So, I think we're going to have an interesting
and unique panorama here.
I think there will be a few of the challenges
that you would expect because there's people
moving around the scene and there's some
somewhat difficult lighting situations.
I think it's going to be fun to put together.
I think we'll be able to show you some techniques
for doing that, and in the end,
I think we'll have a really good result.
