wow thats a very powerful image

Nice shot, good composition and lighting.

One thing that jumps out right away is the portion of concrete at the bottom of the photo, I would crop that out... or have zoomed in or tilted the camera up abit when taking the photo... you could even take out abit of the water above the concrete bridge (?) to help position the horizon off-center.

I also like the reflections on the water by the boats.

Cheers,
Chris

The building doesn't look real, it looks like a big ruler! Love the reflections.
We visited Melbourne for the first time recently and were very impressed with the laid back feel of the city. Fell in love with the trams. Won some money at the Casino, is that somewhere near by? We shall return but it takes us a day in the car. Cathy

Great shot. There is a bit of convergence of the buildings, you could take that out in Photoshop if desired. The incomplete line in the bottom left corner is slightly distracting.

Hey those Aussies have all the money..Very nice light for this great picture.

Hi Jase,

Since this is Critique Corner, I figured that I would put my two cents in. Not that My Opinion carrys much weight.

The comp of the shot is fantastic. The cloudscape is excellent as well. Only two tiny nits.
Straighten the building out a bit and that would get rid of the far left building.
And crop our or clone out the concrete road way at the bottom. I don't think that you needed to crop out any of the water as to me that would take away from the shot.
You always do so well my friend, Thanks for all the comments on my images.
My Best Regards

Sam III


Jason Mckeown   {K:19601} 7/28/2006
Thanks Sam, I had all intentions to take the bridge out, but somewhere between 1130pm and midnight it didn't happen. the only reason the LH building stayed in is the colour, in retrospect i should of straightened it up, but thats what you get using a 17mm.


Jason Mckeown   {K:19601} 7/28/2006
thanks Phil, got some good shots that night, will post them over the next few days


Jason Mckeown   {K:19601} 7/28/2006
thanks for taking the time to comment Chris, the conceete was not suppose t obe there in the final shot, and has been rectified in the post to my website, a foobah on my behalh.


greg collins   {K:11937} 7/29/2006
Love the contrasting patterns - soft smokey patterns of the sky and hard sharp patterns in the buildings. Nice work.
Regards Greg


Jimmy  Piper   {K:5742} 7/29/2006
clarity is always top notch with your shots jason!

love the clouds, heaps of mood.


Jimmy  Piper   {K:5742} 7/29/2006
also wondering why my day shots usally need a fair bit of PP?

night shots come out and only need tweaking.

just me?


Judi Liosatos   {K:34029} 8/1/2006
Yes this is how I remember Melbourne when I was there...Grey and sad looking. Very clear shot Jason.

hello jackson,

perfect time, perfect light, perfect place. just turmn it a little to the left, or straighten ( is that the right word ?) the towers on the left.

yours

frank

Post card perfect! this is a wonderful shot that captures so many things in unison! Great photo!
congrats
Vic


Arthur Kornienko   {K:10007} 9/27/2006
This shot is very nice too, great exposure and super colours. The clouds in the sky make it look very dramatic. I would have cropped out or masked the railing in the foreground and straightend the buildings out a bit, other than that, there isn't much to critique.


Carlos Hauck   {K:1065} 10/5/2006
Powerfull shot. I like the long exposure effect on the water. Congrats.


Jason Mckeown   {K:19601} 10/6/2006
thanks for taking the time to loo and comment on my work Carlos


Shelby Shumate   {K:9739} 11/20/2006
Looks like a beautiful city, would love to live in that building with that view (but who wouldn't, right?). Excellent picture!


Michalis Stama togiannis   {K:9932} 12/20/2006
Very good composition. Very impressive sky. Lighting is very good as well. Maybe you should crop the image a bit at the bottom to take out the appearing part of the bridge.
Well done,
Michalis
