Circular Quay (Sydney Harbour) at disk. Movement of two ferries shown - foreground ferry (green navigation light) is heading to Manly
30 seconds (Shutter priority), f-18 (Exp comp -0.3), ISO 200, focal length 35mm.
Postprocessing in RawShooter essentials: Colour Temp set to 3450, Tint +7, Exposure comp -0.25, Shadow contrast +15, Saturation +10, Sharpness +30 (camera shake from vibrations in the overpass where I shot from was a problem!). Cropped slightly and resized in Photoshop.
If it was advanced editing, then I would have spotted out the noise blotch above the arch to the left of the red light. The bright spot in the sky at far right is actually an incoming plane; in other shots taken that night, planes left motion streaks.

I like the shot. But it doesn't look really sharp to me.

| I was just there over the weekend from Melbourne! Nice...perhaps a little soft focused, but great exposure of a wonderful landmark |

| Nice shot but if the image quality had been better I would have voted higher, image seems a bit "fuzzy", tripod not to steady? |
