Met up with Karl Wertannen (on this site) and some other admirers of a park around here for a sunset shoot.

Here's some stuff I'm messing around with in PS...opinions and suggestions are welcome :).


Shot on Nikon D3s, Nikkor 14-24 with Lee SW 150 kit.

I like it a lot the highlights enhance the photo for me and the deep colors are amazing, one question, is this the most photographed bridge on PT ???? :judge: :judge: :judge:

It might be. Lori G, Karl Wertannen and I are all really close to the bridge...so if we're craving some landscape shots, it's easy access.

I think you should have made it HDR.

You should have waded into the water and got a shot of the sun rising through the arch of the bridge with the water's surface as the foreground element. The camera should have been about 1cm from the surface of the water and the bottom of the filter just dipping into the water.
