Bocage Square (Color) Photo

Photographer’s Note

This was taken in Bocage Square in downtown of Setúbal.
I use a long shutter speed to add people motion.
I had to use an aperture of f22 to avoid the luminosity.
I used a ND4, a ND grad to cut the light, and a circular polarizer filter to increase the contrast.
I use the PS to make the panoramic and increase the contrast and saturation.
I hope you enjoy.

PS: sorry the watermark

Joao,
This is a beautiful scene and a fine panoramic view. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and DOF. The ND filter did it's job and gives you great lighting and definition. I wish you could have made this into a large post so we could see even more details.
TFS,
Asa
