Scenes Of The City II

[Coastal Flyer]

Scene II....depth of field work; one of the many porticos.

Hi CF .. you got some very sweet images here! Personally, the portico one is my favourite of the five. You got a lovely recession, and it all looks sharp from front to back (no mean feat in limited light). This one might work in mono too. It must have been pretty deserted to get it with no people in it. I know that some people prefer pics like this with someone in it to give scale, but it works for me as it is.

Re the pic with the lights .. that works for me too in the context - the key there, I think, is the beautifully lit roof.

Cheers

CF - on another topic .. we might even have got a new member through these pics! I have an online friend in the navy in SD who dabbles in photography. I pointed him to your pics and, of course, he had to join the forum to see them!

I like this one. But your slightly off center or something. But great exposure.

Greg/Mike:

Thanks to you both for the comments, I really appreciate them. I toyed with cropping this image and nearly posted a shot that limits the exposier on all sides. Makes for a whole different shot so I kept this one. I did have to wait for a moment when no one was around as the Park did have lots of folks just out enjoying a fantastic November night; they were quite cooperative I must say.

Thanks again,

CF

P.S. The more members the merrier!! All hail the United States Navy!!
