Challenge:Travel (Classic Editing) Camera:Canon EOS-D60 Location: LAX, Los Angeles, CA USA Date: Dec 25, 2002 Aperture: f4.5 ISO: 100 Shutter: 2 sec Galleries:Cityscape, Travel Date Uploaded: Dec 29, 2002
Initial thoughts Great capture of lights in the night – quite interesting subject matter.
Composition/ Content The position of the tower at the left is balanced by the arches at the right. I like the diagonal lines of the flight taking off – kind of surreal that only the lights and not the craft are captured… It feels a little top heavy on the dark area of sky but not hugely so. Point of focus for me is the pair of diagonal lines.
Background Most of the interest is definitely in the foreground, as intended. I like that I can just make out the hills behind.
Camera Work - Technical Well exposed. No faults that I can see!
Digital Processing - Technical Seems fine to me!
Fits The Challenge Most definitely.
Your Opinion On The Photo One that grew on me as I viewed it second and third times. The content doesn’t have a great impact for me but what is there has certainly been composed and captured well.
Xmas night from a hill in El Segundo, overlooking LAX - took quite a few snaps & elapse - looks like i picked the right one --- the color of the restaurant arches cycle thru a variety of colors, just like the new 'mini-towers' that mark the entrance to the airport - purple would have looked good, too --- if i had a location with the right view, i could have shot the landing pattern with at least 9 planes ...
