KC Plaza & Long Exposure

January found me at the Kansas City Plaza. We have had an extremely mild winter season this year, and it was time to take advantage.

This picture demonstrates long exposure. Put simply, the shutter is held open for longer than normal. This results in the streetlights becoming stars. The front lines in the photograph are actually cars that were coming towards me or were sitting at the corner waiting to turn.

If you're ever in Kansas City between Thanksgiving and the 15th of January, you have to take time and experience the lights of the Kansas City plaza. One of the things I like to do is to go to the top of a parking garage and look down and over the lights. Definitely gives you a different perspective.
