Critique Welcomed Well I couldnt even wait till daylight

[Dave Moss]

I must admit the location was sort of chosen for me its cold and I wanted to get back for a coffee so less than 5 minutes from home and I always thought it would be good for this type of shot all taken in RAW various apeture settings were tried really all with a timed exposure of 25 or 30 seconds

I also liked the way the moonlight was hitting the bridges cantilever

Ahh, the A500.
Nice shots they are, I knows I loves a bit ye olde darkness babs!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

love that last one especially

Did you get a new camera then?

 

[Dave Moss]

Thanks Dan its the A50 right before Meir tunnel its a shock to the system if I ever drive through it these days normally we either come off there or go on the other side I was really pleased with the way they turned out. It was a little bit of me trying to be creative with the new camera it would be better shot about 7 in the evening as more traffic but I really wanted to try it out as a location so 5 30 in the morning must admit I did get some funny looks from a couple of people walking there dogs

Thanks Chris I had gone to get shots of the road (I had never considered the bridge as a shot and I walk our dog over it a couple of times a day) but waiting for the traffic shots I saw the way the moon was hitting it and wanted to try and capture it

 

[Pete Askew]

Looking good Dave, especially the first shot.

 

[Paul Lange]

Good to see that the new camera has re-sparked you interest. It's not as if us boys get excited by such things .

 

[Dave Moss]

What has shocked me so far is how much extra control RAW gives me just been out with it down the canal

Thanks Pete and Paul

 

[Beth Carter]

love the tones in #1 & 3. #2 is a bit too warm and bright for me. guess you haven't fallen in love with the new camera yet.

 

[Dave Moss]

I think I might have Beth its brilliant and 2 I will be honest I think I over exposed it a little I only posted it as except for test shots and finding my way around the camera it was my first proper shot with it

 

[Darren Turner]

nice set Dave, looks like your going to enjoy your new camera, My pick of the bunch has to be no 1 for me,, its pretty dam perfect shot of that type.

As already says no2 is a little over exposed, yet very easily corrected in RAW,

looking forward to seeing some more of your shots in the near future with the new toy ;-)
