[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 516293, member: 13090"] Technically it's a good shot. I might have suggested a smaller aperture than f/4.2 with a lower ISO since I'm assuming you were shooting from a tripod (?). Still the shot is well focused and exposure and white balance look to be pretty spot on. What I think is weakening your shot is the composition. What I want to be looking at in this shot, really, is the building in the center, the mountain to the right of that building and a bit above and below. The left edge of your frame has a lot of tonal weight and it's unbalancing the shot overall. I'd also like to see that crane boom (I think that's what it is) poking in on the right edge about a third of the way down from the top removed and I think the shot is just a teeny tiny bit off kilter (I'd do these corrections myself by my laptop doesn't have Photoshop installed). I think there's a much better shot in your shot, we just need a proper crop to help bring it out. This doesn't make this a great shot, but I think it makes for a simpler, more powerful shot with a strong subject and better balance: [COLOR="#FFFFFF"].... ....[/COLOR] [ATTACH=CONFIG]190919._xfImport[/ATTACH] [COLOR="#FFFFFF"].....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
