Challenge:Travel (Classic Editing) Camera:Nikon D1X Location: Toronto, Canada Date: Dec 28, 2002 Aperture: f8.0 ISO: 125 Shutter: 1/40th of a second Galleries:Cityscape, Architecture Date Uploaded: Dec 29, 2002
I didn't get to this photo during regular voting but I would have given it a four.
This to me is an average looking snapshot. The snow and sky are over exposed. A blue sky if possible would be better.
This photo doesn't say travel to me. If the title said something like "Famous Tourist Attraction of Toronto" it might work a little closer to the theme but that's stretching it.
Other than the Canadian Flag the colors are very bland in my opinion. I would try to avoid shooting the sky if its gray almost white like this.
I'm just an amateur photographer so I couldn't tell you how to avoid the leaning building phenomenom other than take a picture somewhere else.
The angle looks really odd - both buildings appear to be leaning in towards each other - more prominently on the left. Did you take this with the camera pointed upwards? While the capture of detail on the buildings is good, the sky and snow are over-exposed, and the trees are soft looking.
Poor connection to the theme, unbalanced perspective lines (deadly sin taking pictures of architecture) and the colouring being a bit bland with the grey buildings vs. an equally grey sky.
