City C&C

[Pehpsi]

Well i normally post shots i kind of like, so i'll post some i'm not sure about:



was going for detail under the bucket


bloody highlights! it's one shot, so that's as good as i can do




My new PP technique is 'less is more' so i'm trying to only do minor tweaks. I did however use noise-ninga plugin in PS.

Thanks for any thoughts..

really like the 3rd pic. maybe crop a bit more on the right so you don't get as much of that sign in the foreground. The coat hanger looks rather dreamy in that fog

I like Number 1, except for the intrusive MLC centre on the right. Nice sky and nice detail on the tower, though.

Number 2 has excellent detail (and is that a star trail on the right side? How long was the exposure??)

I like #1 = "Reach for the sky" The pic has a real feeling of height.

#3 is a very good layout, but the highlight is distracting unfortunately.

I actually like number 4 James, I think you could do a little more PP work to bring out a bit more of the city, but I like the edge leading you into the center towards the main quay.

Somehow, I like #2 out of these ones, but they're all great shots

Cool thanks guys..

Yeah the highlight really bugs me, don't think i noticed it at the time!

#2 was at 30s. I guess they are star trails? Are they possible at 30s? I was using a really shite tripod i remember though, maybe it moved?

I'll give 3 a crop and see how it looks..

Cheers.

Well, unless the building moved in sync with the tripod to avoid blur they must be star trails.

Good point
