The ventilator and the blue hour Photo

Photographer’s Note

What I originally wanted to achieve with this photo were three issues:
1) The capture the blue hour (although the sky had some clouds)
2) To capture the radar control ventilator with a longer exposure
3) and last but not least to get a good result in total.

Seen at the harbor Landungsbrücken of Hamburg.

Hello Sakis,
I think you achieved your objectives with this fine blue hour view with many details to discover. The ventilator gives a bizarre effect as if some strange helicopeter is landing on the building...
Well done.
Regards,
Paul

Beautiful colors and incredibly sharp. The radar spinning is a cool effect with the longer exposure. Nicely done, thanks for sharing this.

Kalispera Sakis.

I love the way you managed the light. You've done a wonderful work on this night shot and also I like your composition.

Well done.

Hi Sakis,

mmmm, blue hour in Hamburg - genial! Mir gefällt es sehr gut. Der Ventilator gibt der schönen Komposition einen besonderen Effekt. Es stört mich aber ein kleines Bisschen, dass die linke Seite so nach innen zu kippen "droht". Ansonstsen finde ich das Bild wirklich toll - auch mit den Reflektionen!

Viele Grüße, Moin, Moin!

Hi Sakis,
Great night shot. The clarity and quality is superb as well as the composition. I like the light reflected on the surface of the water and the helicopter on the right ;) Well done!
Best regards,
Darek
