Dusky Dockyard Photo

Photographer’s Note

Dockyard in Melbourne, one dusky evening...
Dockyard on the River Yarra, unlike the sea in many places, is a fast upcoming place with so much promise & prosperity.
This is where we have the famous Telestra dome is & a lot of Swanky penthouse apartments are fast relacing the old shanty godowns & warehouses...
This shot was taken on a support provided by the bench by the side & timer on...
Except for bit of saturation not much of PP done... The evening mood was such that it provided a nice haze..

Here is the treat, following Ramesh`s comment - Thanks to him for prompting me for the right one. A milestone song from Ilayaraaja-Vairamuthu combo, rendered by S.P.B`s voice...

Hi again Prem. A lovely shot, taken at that blue-ish time of evening. This one is so clear and sharp despite the slow speed. Even with the bench support, you must have a steady hand. I like the slight pinkish hue very much. A person on the jetty would have been nice but you can't always have everything. I know this spot pretty well. Hope you have enjoyed Melbourne.
Regards,
Andrew

Hello Premanand.
Wow, what wonderful colors. The deep blues offset by the nice yellows give this shot a very serene and colorful look. The texture of the clouds is quite nice and the lightness behind lends alot of contrast to the dark foreground. Nicely framed.
Regards,
Chris.

hello premanand.
I m'excuse not to have answered rather because of disease. C'est always pleasant to look at these sailing ships or these motor boat in a port. The colors are well balanced and the provision of the boat is well calculated.
Pretty work.

Hi Prem,
Beautiful blue/purple evening colors, and nice view of the harbourg. I like the pink light in BG and the yellow reflection in the water. Well done...
Cheers,

Namaskara Prem
You are a widely travelling man Prem...the sky is beautiful as the bluish clouds merge with the orange glow of sunset. The twinkling effect of the boat lights makes this even more beautiful. Well done
