After sunset

mercurial_streak · 27th May 2006

The results of my 1st attempt of "waiting for the light"
The colours r natural n not psed. Some cropping done.
Pls C&C generously.

Blue should not be natural - white balance?
1) Composition - too cluttered - no point of interest
2) I tend to follow the walkway and the poles and found it cut off
(not cut off would be better)
3) Changing to B&W and cropping using potrait instead of landscape the central wallkway may produce a better result?
Just mt 2cents worth.

hi, in astonav, are u waiting for the "light" or "first light"?
recommend u try reading up for first light.. it might be good for shot, but very difficult to take good ones...
