Blackpool Sunset and Night Shots

11 years 7 months ago - 11 years 7 months ago #250157 by nedward50
I've not been active here for a while.

Here are a few shots taken at Blackpool. For any Brits close by it gives the chance to practise different shot types in 1 trip. If you get there early enough you may get a sunset and after that there are loads of opportunities for night photography whilst the illuminations are lit. Here's a link www.blackpool-illuminations.net/ .

As always feel free to comment, bitch, criticise et al. I've stitched the shooting details to each shot







Cheers
Ned

HI Kelly hope you are well.
Yes few people, well for the first 10 minutes after sunset. The lights run along the coast road promenade for around 4 miles. Many just drive through without stopping and walking. Probably the fickle English climate has something to do with it?
Its our poor Vegas type light show? DIdn't see Harry though, think he's in Kabul.

great shots :judge:

You will not be judged as a photographer by the pictures you take, but by the pictures you show.
