Dodger HISTORY! Stadium panoramic shot.

The other day I got to witness history at the Los Angeles coliseum a place they haven’t played in 50 years. To top that off there was over 115,300 people there! It was insane. I left 5 hours early just to get into the place. Also, make sure you check out the left field fence. It was only 200 feet long. I felt like i could have hit it out.

In this shot, I went to the top of the stadium at the begining of the game and waited until the sky got a liittle darker but light enough so you can still see LA in the background.
Then pieced together 7 photos to make this panoramic shot.
