nightshift on the railway

If you would like a tip on improving contrast, set your aperature down (f8 to f13, etc), and give a much longer exposure time (10sec, 15sec, etc.) It will clean up those lights that bleed all over your trains, and make a neater and more interesting image.image

Love the clocks, love the exposure time, not crazy about the trees. And, its not that I'm not crazy about trees being in this shot, I'm just not crazy about the way it is set up here in particular.

County Courthouse
by Bud

Comment:
The courthouse is a beautiful building and the color here is fantastic, but you could have captured those two elements without the cars. They really take away from the shot. Also, had you been closer to the building, you would have been further away from those very bright street lights, and would have ended up with even better lighting, and less or no lens flares. Not sure if you used a lens hood, but if you didn't, they really eliminate a lot of flares, and improve on the contrast of the photo.

Bridge + Lake
by stphw

Comment:
i've seen this bridge in another challenge. I liked it then and I like it now. I never vote down for corner cropping, but if I could make a very nit-picky suggestion that might make for a better print...Rotate the image slightly clockwise, and re-center the image so that both the edges of the bridge bleed off directly in the corners. It is close now, but an extra step will give it a much nicer look and improve on the geometric symmetry that you have here. Nice job.

These types of star shots are tough to pull off in these challenges, especially against some of the other submissions. I keep scrolling up and down to try and make some sense of the image, but it really doesn't seem to have any appeal other than white dots on black space. There also seems to be a tinge of blue around the edges of the stars, which makes it seem like blurry dots. I wish I had more good things to say, but I'm having trouble. I like your idea though, so maybe you'll have better luck if you try the shot again.

Nice job on the lighting, and cropping, though I'm not entirely crazy about the subject.

Nothing seems to be in focus, and while that may be what you were going for, I missed it.

Excellent shot! And...This looks eerily familiar. Is this off of Broad Street in Philly? I think the lighting here is absolutely perfect.
