Re: paw week 15 skyscraper and cloud
When people say that you should have more buildings you can always to to go the opposite way. Remove more of the buildings, maybe only leaving the top of one of them, and the picture may work differently. I think the cropping in the picture is too much in between. Between not enough and too much. I guess I´m a minimalist, so you know which way I would go :-) DagT Den 19. apr. 2011 kl. 02.06 skrev Christine Aguila: Paul Ken: So, not enough bottom, then?

Re: paw week 15 skyscraper and cloud
A gorgeous sky, but I tend to agree with Ken. I thought at first that the photo hadn't fully loaded. That being said, there are times when an element that gives one pause is a plus. I'm a bit torn on this one, but it's definitely a worthy experiment.

I wonder how it would work cropping off more of the skyscrapers, so that just the tops of the shorter ones were visible. That way it would be a shot of the sky, with some buildings as accents, rather than the two sort of vying for attention.

Re: paw week 15 skyscraper and cloud
Thanks, Bob, Steve, Jack. I used the sunny 16 rule with ISO shutter at 80. It looked ok on the LCD, but in post processing I increased had to increase exposure . There's something about the DA 21mm that does a lovely job on blue skies--in my view anyway. This shot was actually my 3rd composition--the others are slightly different--but I thought in this one the cloud best complemented the skyscrapers.
