Vancouver Harbor

A few shots from Vancouver as the cruise ship neared port for disembarkation. Shot in early morning, with some nice light. Your comments about PP are welcomed.

The bridge is Lions Gate Bridge.

Thanks,
Lauren

Hi L. My preference is for the first and last ones. The angles and lighting seem more ' real' or something.

I'm heading out to Vancouver next months for a week to visit my son and his family. Can't wait! Will, of course, haul my gear along but will probably come home with memory cards full of kid shots:) will try and get a few landscapes though because it's a beautiful area!

Looks like you had a wonderful trip!

Thanks, Ceci. I like #1 #4 also, so glad you liked them. I actually very much like #3 but I just can't get it right in post. The perspective doesn't bother me as much, it just looks flat even though the scene had lots of color and dynamic sky. Maybe someone will stop in here and give me a hand.

I remembered you were headed to Vancouver soon. I hope you can shoot a little outdoors, but I will be looking forward to seeing shots of the grandkids!

Cheers-
