BW and color versions of Altona pier
G'day all,
Was just playing with a couple of images from Altona Pier recently and wanted to see what you thought... I think I should add more noise and grittiness to the BW and the color version needs something, but dunno what ... 
Appreciate C&C... Give me your worst I can take it 
EXIF for both is: 50mmF1.8@F13, ISO200, man exp 13 seconds, two shots merged in PSCS2 etc. BW was LAB lightness channel and played a little in LAB color in the coler version... EDIT: forgot to add, co cropping etc.. 
 Aka Andrew
the bW works well
but i like the ambience and mood of the 2nd, a lovely composed and well sought out shot, been there many times but never saw it quite like you did
just noticed a little quirky element to the composition, one of the lights are out, makes the scene look more genuine, i think this pic stands well by itself at that particular time, it's a very nice scene
I've got a few from different angles with the lights out (there's two blown globes) and wasn't sure whether it adds or detracts... Seemed to make it more "real" for me... Glad you mentioned it... Aka Andrew
Love the b&w Mudder. How early/late were you up to get that?
Hassy, Leica, Nikon, iPhone
Come follow the rabbit hole...
6:08 but got down there about 5:15'ish, a few people around, couple were swimming... I think sunrise will be about 6:40 tomorrow so I'll try and get there by 5:30 to get that window of time "just" before sun-rise... Then have a short nap in the arvo an PP the pics... Then I gotta work (from home on the PC) late Sat night and Sunday morning so I'll be buggered then
The piers on that side are good for sunrise, I usually end up at piers on the other side for sunets like half-moon bay or something... Bit of a pier fetish at the moment Aka Andrew
Mudder - there is no question in my mind as to which has the most mystique - colour all the way
