Even in black and white the city still look glimmering, and the bridge is good too. I like it, kinda look like a picture that can be turn into one of those memory postcard.

This is a lovely shot, great composition and clarity, and I adore the B&W format, gives it a classy feel. Yes I think it's a wee bit overexposed but nothing major. Great perspective too... the only thing I would touch up on is the thing sticking out the top of the bridge

Great work, keep it up!

I just love long exposures... check this one out [link]

CatchMe-22 In reply to Beachrockz4eva [2006-10-14 11:36:40 +0000 UTC]

Haha you're too kind... I like using long exposure to capture a sense of movement... you should try that next time, try to take a shot at an angle where you can see the flow of traffic across the bridge, I think the flow of light will give the shot something extra

Sydney must be beautiful or what? anyway; that was my first thought when I saw this, and I'm sure that's true (??)
well, it's really great in b&w.
Great shot

charcoal-city [2006-10-06 02:52:24 +0000 UTC]

I don't think it's over exposed at all - long exposures should look like there's light spilling from everything that glows, and this does. Great B&W contrast.

It almost looks like a negative. And just the one bright star - nice.
