November 2024 - My City @ Sunset
About the Image(s)
This is a picture I clicked as a test for my new Sony A6700 ( 16-50mm) kit lens. And this is clicked from the balcony of my apartment. Officially monsoon is over but we still get clouds intermittently and during some of the sunsets we get very beautiful hues of orange , yellow, reds and golden with clouds it add to drama of the scene. I was throughly impressed with the picture quality of Sony's Crop sensor camera A6700, which I have purchased for shooting videos in 4K, I am trying my hand into Videos now.
The Original image size is 6192 x 4128 Px, I have resized this to fit our PSA requirements, EXIF as below
Shutter :- 1/50, ISO 100, Aperture f/3.5 Focal length 16mm.
Thank you.

I love cityscapes and this is one to love. Crop sensors have become so good that I, too, am now shooting with a crop sensor (but with high pixel count) and am very pleased with the results. My image this month comes from that. The unlit building in the center of the image and the space behind it seem a bit out of synch with the rest of the well lit rest of the image, creating a dead space. I could argue that this is what actually creates the two vectors of lights that move to the background. I also cropped the top a bit so the top is just above the bright clouds. Finally (sorry to be so annoying) I see great image potential in the road/bridge on the right side leading to the squiggly in the road at the end. Posted: 11/07/2024 14:57:17

The lovely cloud formation draws your eye to the mountains in the distance, and it seems you have a wonderful bird's-eye view of the scene. I agree with cropping the top down to the bright clouds. Also, it adds interest that the large building in the back on the right is highlighted, as though lit by the opening in the clouds. Very nice! Posted: 11/08/2024 12:35:07

It's true if one croped out some of the left part off the picture, one would be left with the street as a leading line to the interesting clouds and sky. Posted: 11/08/2024 15:21:11
When I see a cityscape I am pulled into the image and look at every square inch of it. We only see the portion that our camera captures, but our minds, eyes, and hearts see everything in harmony or disorder. I love it -- especially the mountains in the distance. I've never been to India, at 81 I may never go -- but I can see through your images it would be a fascinating adventure for the artistic soul. Posted: 11/09/2024 15:42:20
I quite enjoyed looking at this image. I get a sense of a bustling, active city and over top of that is mother nature putting on her own show. You could do a lot with cropping but I like it as is - lots to explore looking at the scene; no one main subject, but tons of things coming together to make a very nice image.
