Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Long Exposure III (Basic Editing)
Camera: Nikon D200
Lens: Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM for Nikon
Location: Melbourne Australia
Date: Dec 17, 2007
Aperture: F5.6
ISO: 200
Shutter: 3 seconds
Galleries: Cityscape, Landscape
Date Uploaded: Dec 18, 2007

 The Image: Back to the Rialto observation deck for another go at an image I had done previously as a black and white.



I like the light and the result here.

Edit: USM, Levels, Colour Balance, Noise Ninja...that's it

Prediction: 6.4...cause the other one went 6.6, so the creativity isn't as strong and people will vot accordingly.

Post Challenge: Thanks everyone. Never expected this to make 7th. I have had a good run with several top tens and two forths in the last month. The ribbons are elusive.

What a great shot! This one looks a little tilted to the right however. Gorgeous city shot though.

Love the contrasting blues and oranges in this shot, and you had an outstanding vantage point. One of the best in this challenge. 9.

Great city shot. Feels like a bit of an unusual angle, but that doesn't detract from the overall image. Nice bit of light still retained in the sky.

Back to comment: The best skyline image in the challenge. It looks like the color version of hotpasta's November Free Study image. I like this a whole lot better. Giving it a bump to a 9.

The reflection off the top of that building above the horizon is perfect, it adds so much depth and really brings out the blue in the sky by contrast. Excellent!
