Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Long Exposure III (Basic Editing)
Camera: Nikon D200
Lens: Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 18-135mm f/3.5- 5.6G ED DX
Location: Staten Island, NYC
Date: Dec 16, 2007
Aperture: 5.6
ISO: 250
Shutter: 8 sec.
Galleries: Sky, Seascapes
Date Uploaded: Dec 16, 2007

8 second light capture, desaturated lower half of photo; starting with the horizon of the water down to bottom. Top half of sky portion was saturated and channel mixed. Most of the color here is all in Camera. This is the RAW version of my shot which lacked the color of the jpeg and so I boosted general saturation to compensate.

The model is me and it was very windy.. The hood I was wearing is a little blurry, I tried to brace myself as much as possible.

Perhaps less sharpening.

hmm, the person takes a way a bit from the overall image for me; the sweatshirt hood & jacket bring to mind a "hoodlum" element (sorry!) 5

Nice color to the sky, and I like the addition of the person for perspective.

this would have worked much better in landscape orientation and from a slightly lower POV. it seems to me that there is too much of the river and sky to be seen, while the person is crammed into the corner.

Out-of-focus person is a little distracting. Good detail on the rocks and skyline, and a good amount (if a little too much) light.
