très grande netteté du monument; Belle couleur du ciel et perspective interressante mettant en valeur la cathédrale.

Hi Timothy, interesting low perspective and great nighttime capture of the Cathedral. The detail in the structure as well as the way the railings lead into the main element of your shot is well done. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Tim
Great shot. I like the amount of light and shade and detail you've managed to capture in the Cathedral, and the way the bridge adds perspective and leads the eye in.
The colours are really interesting too. Was the sky really that unusual shade of brown or did you use a filter or some post-processing to achieve the effect?
Thanks for sharing

Interesting perspective and good lighting. The sky seems strange and there are a whole range of reasons for this varing from the settings on your camera, to the length of the exposure and filters. What PP work did you do, if any?Whatever, the composition is good and the sharpness well defined. Good of you to get a sharp picture on the wobbly bridge. Good work.

Hi Timothy
Great composition and nice low POV make this shot a success. Nice sharp image with nice colours. The sky colour is quite unusual. How did you achieve this?
All the best

A seriously classy piece of work here Timothy and night photography at its very best.DOF and sharpness are immaculate the composition works well with the receding bridge leding the eye towards St Pauls and that gorgeous colour in the sky is the tops.

Nice lead in formed by the bridge railings and the texture of the bridge deck. Could be a bit darker I think.

Really great long exposure. I see two little streaks of light in the ksy. Satellites? You have an amazing picture here, so it might be worth scrubbing them out.
Best,
Mike

Hi Timothy
Great night shot thanks to the stunning slight. I like the mix of the modern bridge with the old cathedral. Excellent low POV.

Hi Tim - only London and Paris seem to have that colour of night sky on a regular basis, combination of low cloud and urban lights reflecting off of them from below, made for a super shot, I really likre the ant's view perspective, great work. Do you live in SF?
