blue Toronto by northy

blue Toronto

Some months ago Jani challenged (dared?) me to do a panorama of Toronto from the island during blue hour... tadaaaaaaaaaa!

but OMG! between being photobombed by boats and airplanes, the constantly moving clouds and the ever-changing lights on the CN tower, this was indeed a challenge!

so this is made up of 7 images - smushed together in PSE... I had to shrink the original file some to upload here and at a guess, this is going to look better on flickr

tx lots for all the lovely comments on my lone rider and murky waters shots... i was kind of surprised that murky waters made PP and thank you all very kindly for that :)
@janim - better late than never, right? ;p

@northy this is fabulous. The exposure is perfect - all the lit windows are sharp points of light rather than overblown blobs. Really like this & fav of course.

Smushing together anything on PSE would be too much for me. Great result!
August 13th, 2013  
@jamibann tx! And actually PSE does most of the smushing work automatically - so it's pretty easy!

@summerfield tx Vikki... unfortunately they make it difficult to enter if you're not on facebook... i *hate* Facebook... i have a page, but only to monitor my kid's page... i have no clue how to make sure that it has the highest privacy settings... and you can't enter the contest unless you give whoever is running it some kind of access... YUCK... working to figure it out... but really not sure i want to go there :(
August 31st, 2013  
@northy - yes, i found that out today when i was going to put in an entry. i do have a facebook account but like you i use it only to communicate with my sister in manila. and i got dismayed when i read that for your photo to win anything you get to have a lot of 'likes' on facebook. that sucks! is there no decent contest anymore? facebook must die! :-) as my bff said a while ago, "you don't do facebook, i'm trolling your 365!" hehehe!

@summerfield i think the "like" aspect is only for the viewer's choice category... it sounds like the other ones are not "like" dependent... sigh...
