Description
This version is cropped and color corrected to remove the orange hue cast by the sodium lighting. I don't know which way I like it better...Related content

This is one of the best skyline shots I've seen in a while. I'm not quite sure what it is, but I really like the reflections on the water.

Yeah, I need to get a tripod so that I can do something like that. What was your exposure set on?

It was ISO 64, F/2.8, for 8 seconds.

It's the same photo in a way but I think I like this version a little better. Less glare of the lights makes my eyes happy...

Awesome! I love the reflections in the water, and I especially love how vivid the photo is (I've been having trouble with that)
Also, that bridge would make a good subject for some photos.

Thanks for the comments! I think I'll probably do a shoot of all our bridges in the near future. We have like seven of them crossing the river here. All of them are interesting in their own way.

Pretty shot. Reminds me of one I downloaded years ago from a bulletin board before the internet made it this far. Not sure if it's the light tweaking or just the shot, but the water looks very solid.

Did you see the original version of this without the tweaking in my gallery? Which do you prefer?

No, I didn't but I went and looked. It's a real toss up. The water looks softer and the whole picture feels more "real" in the original. But I don't like the orange glow much either (orange and yellow are not my favorite colors

I did a blue shift and the results were much better. I updated picture to the new version. Thanks for your help! I still don't know which I like better though.

It looks more natural this way. ^-^ I think I prefer the blue shift.

Thanks for looking! I used manual color correction in PSP 9 to filter the orange out. I'll try shifting the whole spectrum and see what happens. I just don't want to loose the natural colors. I looked at your gallery and your artwork is right up the same alley as my wifes! LOL
Her gallery is at [link] if you are interested.
Thanks again for your input!
