hi everyone! I am new at dps forum, but i am really up-to-date in blog! Great work there. Congrats. The better way to show myself to you on first post, is with my "almost" favorite photo.



I took it with a canon a510(my old friend), and a tripod, in my firts days at photography. I send this photo for a magazine. It was classified at "month top100", but not in the "month top5". I really like "her". .

Please have a look and critique, help me to be a better photographer!

thanks

it's a really good shot imo. im getting into those slow sync night shots to and i just love the way they turn out. one thing i like about your picture as well is that you captured the moon in the top left which im also trying to learn how to perfect. grats on the pic

Gorgeous colors!! I love the movement here. One thing I would do would be to edit out the moon, it's a bit distracting.

I think you mean long time exposure. Slow sync is a flash technique (this is me being finicky).

As for the shot, this came out very well. No really noticeable or distracting noise, and it looks to be decently sharp for 15 seconds.
It also have a nice path for my eye to follow.
The moon does kind of bother me, and can be easily removed, but it's up to you really. I don't see it as a HUGE distraction.
Good work!
