Nightscapes of Melbourne - my little intro

Tougemon

Hi there,


I'm new here, and fairly new to photography in general, I currently own a and use a Nikon 5700 but I'm in the process of deciding what to upgrade to in terms of dSLR's, but enough about me for the moment - here's my contribution:







all taken at ISO 100 with NR. Comments are welcome!

cheers

I like the sky in the first shot, but I think it's a little crooked.

DoctorIt

Agreed with Nick, #1 I think came out best... except it needs to be straightened.

#3 is a bit over-the-top exposed. A second or so less and it would have been perfect.

Cool city

Wow great job! I love night shots of skylines and I think they are great. The last is a bit overexposed and the sky is a bit bright, but I still think the effect of the starbursts are really nice.

great city shots. I love night time city shots. Try shooting in manual? If you experiment with your f/stops and use a smaller apature you will get more of a star bust effect on the city lamps.

Just somethign to experiment with.

LOVE the first and second, a great job on those. I love photos where you can see traffic and only the lights - just seems the cars aren't there at all. the third, I agree with doctor-it - the lights are TOO much....was to too long an exposure.
