 I wanted the starburst of the lamps so I squeezed down the aperture to get it. Since they came out so shiny, I figured I would go all in and go full blast on the velvet painting/ black light poster look on the edit.

Something happened during site maintenance to scrub the title. this was supposed to be called "Velvet Elvis Edit".

well, okay! didn't know this was yours, Brennan, but was puzzled as to what the photographer's vantage point was for this one.

Lovely composition and yes, those star lights are perfect.

Just a gorgeous capture - a stretch for me in a landscape category, but I have to give it a good score.

The title needs work ;-). Very nice take on the Bay Bridge & SF. The sky above the bridge is over processed. But the composition is lovely.

A view/perspective that has been seen countless of times, but this is technically well done (aside from some patchy blue spots in the sky). 6

The bold, brassy colors really make this image stand out. The star filter certainly adds extra dazzle. My one nitpick, uneven water line. Other than that, very attractive image.
