Yesterday? These few evenings keep raining, cannot go out and shoot

 

[edutilos-]

9x 30 seconds with the K5's multi-exposure mode, effectively giving a 4 1/2 minute long exposure.

#424

Trying an alternative view. 5 vertical shots at 14mm (before crop factor) stitched.

The airport at night. 2 shots were used here - one long exposure to blur out the escalators and numerous people (it was still busy at the time of shot), and one short one to capture a human figure at the position I wanted.

A series of unrelated objects put together. Just trying out something new. I didn't intend to capture the figure, but it just happened that this dude came along when I was composing, and it just looked better with the figure there.

It was a tough night with the wind rising up every now and then destroying the reflections. The clouds weren't actually like that, it was just one cloud moving all the way to the left. I tried to time it starting from right to left such that it would stitch nicely when it linked up, and it did!

I like this! If only the flyer don't pop up there. But as it goes if u really want something unrelated there, then perhaps it is fine. Just thought it would be better without the half wheel of the flyer

This is something I always wanted to try on my trips.... always got so many tourists all over the shop. How long is your long exposure?​

 

[edutilos-]

Miserable and rainy night.. At least the water was still. 5 fisheye shots stitched.

I love the colour and tone of #414. I especially like how the middle part is perfectly aligned horizontally.

Tried to shoot this from street level the other day but didn't really worked out so ended up shooting MOE. hahah.

Aha.. It's a tough building to shoot.. So bright! I'm thinking a daytime shot would work better.

This works for me, but the many times I've passed by this building, I've always felt the quirky design of the building makes me wonder which perspective of the building is best presented. As such, I've not really dedicated a blue hour to shooting it. Shooting frontal and side view somehow doesnt convince me it is the best way to present the structure. Maybe in the end, the interior could be more interesting and less challenging to frame.

I think the butt is ugly... In my opinion the side view is best (see below for rendition), but need to check it out to see if there is even a workable angle.. I think this is one of the few buildings that might actually look super good in the day, in the appropriate light.

Yes the butt view is definitely bad. But between the two side views and front view, I felt a diagonal side view could show the eccentricity of the design of both the frontal and side sense. But looking at the link you shared, I'm finding it difficult to visualise from where is this view seen from. But yes, if there is such a day with deep blue sky in the afternoon, I will also try a daytime shot of it.

 

[nitewalk]

It's from the side, but I'm not sure if it's doable irl. That's CG or artist rendition I think...

Anyways, I took a few shots of the interior (which I'll process later on... Dead tired). The building is really cool, it has these huge fans that cool it down at some parts. Other than the shops, the whole building is not air-conditioned and isn't even that hot.

Ah i see! Time to explore the interior!
