About the Image(s)
Our camera club?s monthly photo walk took place around a renovated industrial area that proved to be a hidden gem for night photography. The centerpiece is ”Big Blue”, a huge steel-plated building that represents a cube cut out of the ocean, with a mural of a blue whale in natural scale. At night, there is an undulating lighting in hues of blue, green and purple, like a ripple on the surface of water. This image was taken at the foot of the building, where an area of the yard is covered with lumps of glass. - Fuji X-T4 on tripod, 27.5 mm, f/10, 27 s, ISO 160. In Affinity Photo, I adjusted levels and brightness, and added some clarity in the foreground. Finally, I added a brightness gradient in the bottom part that I thought might help with the sense of depth? - Exposure bracket would probably have given more room for adjustments. Any improvement ideas?
