Looking at Lisbon Photo

Photographer’s Note

This picture was taken in the castel in Palmela, my hometown. Briefly after sunset (well, maybe not that briefly), i noticed the ilumination effect on the metal structure of the eyescope and i thought it could result in a nice effect. The dark and blurry background contrasted well, making an interesting effect.

Hi Bruno

Welcome to TE community.

Nice to have your 1st shot entry to TE. I have suggestions below
.BIG signature, use small one at bottom or top
.very blur and all grey BG
.view-scope can be placed off center
.put a good Note to tell us about it

TFS, cheers

I like the evening glow and the lit up city. If I would have taken this photograph then I would have done it in th following way.

1) The telescope at 1/3 and not center.
2) I would have tilted the telescope down to make it look as if the telescope is inviting th viewer to see the city through it.
3) a much smaller aperture of say f 11. This would have given a star filter effect from the pin point light sources.

Hope I could be of help.

Cheers

Bela foto noturna. Gostei do eyescope em destaque, apesar da pouca nitidez. Valeu!
