Taken with the DS and sigma 28-70/2.8 at f8 1/15.
had a lot of smoke around which coloured the blacks a red/brown so i added shadow to get deeper blacks.

Very nice Shane. Much more relaxing to look at than to drive over... :wink:

That's a good capture Shane - well exposed and nicely composed.

very nice photo. however i think the red and green lights ruin the continuity of orange street lamps.
very nice though, and the red and green could not be helped obviously, and a P&P would just ruin the image.
nicely done :)

A classic image... Having gone through a bit of a pier fetish myself recently I can relate to it... :lol:

Seems nicely exposed too...

Only thought is to perhaps crop some off the top to raise the pier in the image, the green lights I assume you could change their hue in PP of you wanted to...

Mudder, it's actually a bridge; the Hornibrook highway 8)

Nice shot Shane, I've been wanting to go out there myself one evening.

Sorry to correct you Dion (you're bigger than me, actually you're bigger than 95% of the population) but it's the Houghton Highway. The old Hornibrook is in chronic disrepair just behind it. :lol:

I really like this image. A bit abstract and sort of soothing to look at. I always like the effect of a small aperture on lights. Perhaps a bit of a crop along the top...

I liked this when I first saw it because of the perfect exposure, a very hard thing to achieve.
