Dockside Lights by andycoleborn

Dockside Lights

Back to work after an extended Christmas break today, and am thinking Friday's not actually a bad day to return... the office is usually a bit quieter than on a Monday and with what folk that were in, they tended to be in a good mood what with the coming weekend...

Just like almost every other day from before Christmas, I have resorted to the standard: Go to wharf / find level surface / take a long exposure shot of buildings and water / go home routine...

Although here I bring you a foot bridge over one of the docks instead of mainly buildings... the white blur on the bridge is in fact people, lots of them.. it's a very busy bridge....!

Added bonus plane action caught too....
Flippin' lovely

There is so much to look at in this. I love all the motion blurs you caught - people, plane, water. Well done!

wow can't believe how long your exposure is. My night city shots are fast. I think the lights here are so bright if I did 6 sec my camera would explode! Beautiful shot by the way and yeah back to work too - sucks.

I like the strong saturation! Yesterday rained strong and i thought i should do a long exposure pic in the rain, just to get this kind of floor reflections in the water. Nice!

I love cityscapes like this Andy, love the contrast between the crisp sharp harsh building lines and the soft blurred water!

Very nicely done, I should experiment with longer exposure time too for my night shots but I am usually to rushed and impatient while photographing at night.
