    Just Another Day

    I know sunsets are taboo, so at risk of being summarily boo'ed off the stage, here is my submittal. Just Another Day in San Diego. Hawaii is not the only spot with memorable sunsets.

    Nice, I like the moodiness created by the golden glow.

    Hi CF,
    I like the colour and the people on the bridge. By the way, what were the camera settings?

    Greg/reading/Yoyo/a65:

    Thank you very much for your comments. Always nice to get feedback. As for the camera details: ISO 200/f 9.0 @ 1/250 with a polarizer. No doubt that really helped the color.

    Thanks again.

    Re: Just Another Day

    I think that overall the image is too dark. The left and right fore/middle ground are murky at best. Can you open up the shadows somewhat?
    No, I DON'T need that.

    MB,

    Thanks for the suggestions. I will play around with it and see if opening the shadows a bit improves the overall appearance.

    Thanks again.
