High Heels and Skyscrapers~Photo J week 11

For the photo of my choice this week I wanted to capture beautiful lights of downtown Fort Worth during the Sundance Square grand opening. The plaza had a fountain of shooting water spouts in the center. My friends and I spotted the water shooting up and by the time we got close enough to take a picture, the water was back to ground level. After waiting around for the water to shoot up again, I had the idea to shoot my friend's shoes and long dress next to the water while also capturing the lights and taller buildings. I tried squatting but eventually laid down flat to take the shot. With a high ISO and low shutter speed, the lighting was easy to capture. It was tough though to shoot a picture while laying on the freezing ground-a small sacrifice.
