If it was my house, I'd love to have that welcoming glow waiting for me when I returned home. I like your picture cd and think it has a feel good factor, apart from having great detail, great colours and even better reflections on the river, good job mate

i think you're getting there.....

i looked to see what time you shot this and the stamp said around 7:30.......i'm wondering......if you kept those same general settings....and came, say.....30 minutes earlier.....when there's a bit more light in the scene to balance out the bridge lighting.....

it's good now..there's a lot of color to the sky......but i can see it really going places......

Excellent exposure on this one. Great color and great reflection.

last time i tried it was about 10pm thats why it blew out, thats why i tried it this early, but i will try it again a bit early, gives me a chance to get a sunset over the river mouth to the right, off shot
