Exercise 30: Variety with Low Sun

The purpose of this exercise seems to be to capture, in one day, the variety of late afternoon sunlight by changing point of view.  There is no limit on the type or number of subjects, but I chose to limit myself for two reasons.  One, this is a huge object and the sun plays on it quite nicely at the end of the day.  Two, I didn't have much time to search out additional subjects.

The object in question is an industrial size air conditioning unit.  You can read more about the company here. As you can see from the photos, it is an isolated structure about five stories tall with nothing nearby to obstruct the afternoon sun.

My approach was simply to circle the object, shooting as much as possible. I shot entirely on auto.  As a result I had to correct on a couple images for exposure.
