Looks like the flash was too bright... makes the photo look washed out.
Shouldn't crop people's knees off, and then include wasted space at the top.

Thanks! Think I made a decision to include more sky hence the chopped shadow.

good. :thumbsup: the sky looks dramatic. However I think u might need Zoom in + rule of thirds.

Anyways good stuff

Hi guys

Paiseh I didn't meet you all at the same spot.

Here are my photos. Was waiting for twilight but the clouds ruined it.

Great. Except for the slanted horizon. Actually the clouds make yr photo more interesting ;p

I used matrix metering with GND. Normally to smooth the water in this case is to stack the GND and ND filter. However, I didn't bring and also, stacking 2 Tian Ya ND filter will produce a magenta cast... So I exposed normally and juz blurred the water in my PP.

Matrix metering in okay since i got GND on.

Yup, i struggled to show the wide angle with my 18-55mm kit lense.. So I forsake the boring water and show most of the vast sky with the little-mess of the JB cityscape.

Actually to get long exposures without filter, you can:

1. Set your ISO to the lowest. For my D90, it was ISO 200
2. For your aperture,use F11 or F13(MAX).
3. Wait from 7.30pm onwards. For my shutter speed, I always manage to go past 1-2 seconds after 7.30pm.

This is a nice one! You got the sky really really nicely.
Something about your image makes it look soft. I suggest you modify your watermark and see how first...! hahaha. That 'blurness' affects my view of the image.

Thanks, bro Kevin. I had changed my watermark signature in the following photo. Still blurry?

 

[ZerocoolAstra]

hahah see? The watermark really makes a difference!
