Gallery: POP PhotosPosted August 25, 201292 views3 comments

I have contributed almost entirely to the Avian Gallery. My wife recently retired and has the photo bug now. She is mostly POP subject oriented photographer. So I am trying to expand my subjects as well as help her learn. This image is from my first outing to try and attempt son night images.

Any suggestions and/or critiques are appreciated.

Love this! Great night scene - nice colours, good detail, and interesting subject.
I'd personally cut some of the water out - to maybe just below the right reflection.
Glad to see you posting again! (Nice new camera too, I see!)

I think you handled this very well. Exposure seems spot on. I see Sandy's point about perhaps having less of the dark water at the bottom of the frame but I like where the pier is positioned for comp.

Sensational color in this night shot. Well done.
