Nice shot. I was thinking about something similar, but looking from on top Queen Anne. Which building was this shot from? The lights at the horizon appear to be exposed just right, but down in the streets, it seems overly bright. (from smith tower, right?) Photo 9 City 8 total 8
Very busy picture. I see a lot of bluming in all the points of light, I am assuming this is a trade off you made to get more detail in the forground. One of my top picks this week.
I feel like it could be more clear. You should try closing the aperture more and lengthening the shutter. Sorry if that's not an option on your camera, but that method tends to clear lights up and cuases them to flare rather than to blur.
I gave this photo a ten because I love the way you've captured the city life at night. All the lights in the darkness surrounding it...life never sleeps in a city...great job! KDJohnson
looks nice at thumbnail size but either your resize went wrong or you just have a lot of noise in this. e.g. jpeg artifacts (?) around the bright top of the highrise on the right look terrible. 4
Wow, you managed to fit most of the city in there. This is a view of Seattle that I've not seen before. The exposure seems about right, but the focus is off a little.
Looks like you took this looking south from the Space Needle. It would also have been nice facing northeast looking over Lake Union. Good night shot. My wife's jealous. Hers never turn out so well:)
A couple of things bothered me about this particular photo. First, the lack of use of a tripod to prevent camara shake (always evident with long exposure shots). Second, image grain.... either due to using a high ISO (>200) or oversharpening. The rest of the image is quite nice though.
