I tried to somehow get the many light reflections and refractions that all together made up the special atmosphere over the water. Any comments would be very welcome.
Thanks a lot for the extended cpmment and nice to hear from you again, Visar!
To tell you the truth I also didn't like that bridge there very much, but also didn't really "hate" it.
I know what you mean about the highlights in this case. To me it is always a nice question, if one should go more for details or for the general "light" of the scene. Sometimes light wins at the cost of some details.
i find an exciting vibrancy here Nick, the colours are really amazing - the light was on your side, definitively, to make possible a beautiful capture of cityscape in autumn--
as for those 'overexposed' parts of the reflection on the water, i know that there is no possible way of extracting them differently- not at least with a single shot (without bracketing)! anyhow, i find that quite hypnotizing sparkles... you know, a beautiful dance of light- maybe, i am splitting hair here, but i think there is only one minor thing that makes this shot less total than i would like to see it- that is that line of the bridge that for me somewhat imbalances the composition, making it somewhat lean on the right. though it is real, and i guess there was not failure in adjusting- thus, the conclusion is preference- nonetheless, apart for that, i am really stroke by it-
That's a big problem. How to get the special light and not overexpose or underexpose anything. I guess this was not successful in that. So I must retry it some day.
