Grand Musuem

[ckoonyin]

1. in what area is critique to be sought?
Looking for critique on composure, exposure and also on the feeling that it conveys

2. what one hopes to achieve with the piece of work?
To show how grand the National Museum is with the lightings at night.

3. under what circumstance is the picture taken? (physical conditions/emotions)
Late at night with only the spotlight illuminating the musuem.

4. what the critique seeker personally thinks of the picture
slightly overexposed at the bottom of the musuem,

slightly over exposed. Apparent distorion on the building as well. Was that intentional?

Yeap, was trying to go for a fisheye feeling to give a different look to it.

Hope that worked.

Nice work with the fisheye lens cos IMO it does bring out the grandeur that I believe you're trying to portray. But I would have liked it much more if you'd shot this in daylight. Somehow feel the lighting of the building is too mundane for a pic portraying something as grand.

Keep it up! Cheers!

I can make a good guess that this is a stitched shot and the photos are taking relatively close to the building.

As a stitched shot, this explain the uneven colour tone of the lights and the fisheye effect that is not really fisheye.

For the frontal facade of the national, this angle seems to be unflattering in trying to portray the grandeur of the building. The dome is missing and the triangular roof on the sides.

If you attempting to look for new angles, this isn't it.

Check out the more conventional shots that do justice to the building.
