Wot no fog on the Tyne? Nah just HDR

[tontoshorse]

There was a fair bit of fog around tonight so me and the dog trundled down to the Quayside only to find it was perfectly clear.

Hey ho though did a tourist shot and banged it through photomatix, its enjoyable screwing the wotsits out of a pic.

It was the first real run out for the Tamron 17-50 2.8

Anyways....

Thanks - no boat, me and the dog donned the arm bands and set off on a old oil drum, paddling out using a piece of driftwood.























Nah, there's a bend in the river just there.

Lovely shot, must admit to considering that lens myself.

Bloody good shot there, you've got the exposure spot on.

Composition works well and I like the long reflections.

Thanks Bill, I've done that shot before (its compulsory up here) with the 18-200 VR and the Tamron is noticably sharper.

Bloody good shot there, you've got the exposure spot on.

Thanks Dave

Cheers Dave, the norm is to wait for the tide to stop and get a mirror like reflection, but like yourself I do prefer the long reflections for a change.

thanks all.

Thanks, the light pollution always gives that muddy colour on long eposures (this was about 8 secs).

Did you enter this into Digital SLR Magazine? if so well done because it got in!

I have been trying to work out if its yours and it looks exactly the same compositionally and the boat to the right is there, the colours are well different in the magazine but I think thats down to print.

It'll not be mine, there are a zillion shots from that spot - you can just about make out the tripod marks on the pavement.

Well remembered though.

Edit: who's it credited to?

A local chap around there called Gary Gallagher, had a little statement and everything.

Your picture just stuck in my head, so take that as a compliment.

Honestly just pop into ASDA and turn to page 17. It'll amaze you, its exactly same but colours. I was side by side comparing them trying to find a difference.

Cracking shot Tonto, love the mlti-coloured reflections.

 

[senu]

Excellent Shot.. can't say any more really

Super shot mate. Subtle HDR makes it pop real nice

Could well be, the picture of the dude in the magazine has less hair....but maybe the one on Flickr is an older pic...
