Back out tonight with the old wire wool. I've got a bit rusty with my orbs, need a bit more practice!

Some great stuff in here recently.
I finally started editing my stuff from 3 months in the USA.
Here is one from Seattle.

[Niall]

Awesome, Ben! If you gave that a crop so it’s just the skyline it’d be in my favourites on Flickr straight away.

 

[v15ben]

Might give that a go tomorrow, Niall.
I like the trails from the boat in the foreground for some reason though!

 

[Niall]

This is how I’d have it, personally

 

[v15ben]

I quite like that!
I have a few other similar shots, will have to post those too.

I like the crop version better. The light trails on the original are a bit distracting.

 

[v15ben]

Here is another one from Seattle.
A bit marmite I think, but I quite like it.
I've also re-edited the first one as suggested on this thread.

Love both of those, Ben They remind me that I need to do some more night time cityscapes!

 

[Brazo]

Starting to process my shots from a recent tour of Southern Spain, these are from Valencia, Sony NEX 5n and Sigma art primes. Taken with a 2 stop cokin grad to balance the reflection exposure.

Me too, Niall.
Those are from the only night I've had taking night cityscapes since probably April!
The shots from Spain are spectacular, Brazo.
Love that place and have seen photos from there before. Looks so cool.

 

[Šįk]

Wow Brazo, love them shots!

Ahh brazo I was in Valencia that week. Got a pic of the crane from the other side haha !!

Valencia by evil_giraffes_rule, on Flickr

Taken the same day as yours

 

[Brazo]

Cheers for the comments guys! Mad that we were there the same day giraffe!

 

[Brazo]

I think this version is better taken about 15 mins earlier as its bluer and the beast looks like its cut through the clouds!

[Ay Ay Ron]

Incredible shots there.

Tried convincing the Mrs that Valencia should be our next holiday. Don't think she's having any if it though.

Mine went shopping whilst I had an hour to myself I was lucky to get still water on the reflection pools because before and after my session the water was quite choppy!

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

My reflection shots were all choppy. Was going for long exposures and it was about 1am tho haha. Bloody Spanish time.. Dinner before 9pm even tho you've got to be up at half 6 for work ? Sorry ?!

 

[Brazo]

A few more, last one from the UK

[Matt_90]

Took these this weekend and thought they were worth sharing..

 

[Brazo]

Love the bride shot, she makes a great focal point in a very structural image.

 

[v15ben]

Yep, that bride shot is awesome.
Not seen anything like that for a wedding shot before!
Really like the night shot of all the buildings from above, Brazo.
Reminds me of Asian cities!

 

[Laura]

not photographically very good but a perfect day on a perfect bike.

Man, this thread has been ace recently...

I like it again, Ben. But watch that dust spot in the middle of the sky above the buildings, and again, I think less water would be a better composition

Thanks, Niall.
I'm going to re-edit without the dust spot!
It actually got Explored which was a surprise.
I really like both pictures before and after your comment, especially the FRS!

 

[Habitual]

So many awesome photographs on this page. That photograph of the bride is stunning - It looks too good to be real.

All of the night photography too... Awesome.

And that Focus/Landscape!!!

See those on FlickR. Very good!

Really like those, Tom. Nice captures of the action.

Thanks guys!

It was off-roading Saturday and drag racing Sunday!

Nice shots again, Tom.
That M3 shot looks like they were having fun!
The Seattle Blue shot went mental on Flickr, has had about 5,000 views in a day!
