Took this one on Sunday when out for a little walk around the botanic gardens for some pics. Instead of coming home with bunch of flower macros, I just headed this way for the late afternoon and post-sunset shots.

I hardly thought of vertical composition for a landscape here, but it seems to have turned out nicely.

VERY nice Yi-p, the horizon police will be along soon though

Oh, as much as I love kids/ppl, I'd clone them out on the left hand side.

Great shot. May even be able to crop the people out and still get a good result. Well done Yi-p.

great balance of light..........

Looks very sweet. Well done. What horizion? Its the bend in his lense...

Great shot, love the colours and the subject. You could do two different crops, one with less forground and all of the sky, the other with less sky and all of the forground. Just a thought.

Horizon? Everyone knows it all downhill when you leave the North Shore.

This is what photography should be about - the right time, the right place and most importantly, the photographer - love it.

Thanks everyone, I will straighten it up and clone the kids on the left side of the image when I get home.

I tried my best to tell (politely) all those tourist to give way in front of me, just happen that kids never listen :lol:

PS. How much is a bubble level? Where do I get it here??

Ok, following being busted from horizon police so many times, I've got to make the changes...

Horizon fixed, kids cloned out carefully.

How about now?

looks straight now!!
good stuff

Posted: **Tue Aug 01, 2006 7:52 pm**

Yi P, must say I prefer the straight horizon

Posted: **Tue Aug 01, 2006 9:09 pm**

With the horizon straightened, this is one stunning shot. I like this a lot.

Yeah that's a great photo. It has a very mysterious feel to it.

Like the straightened / de-kidded version. Excellent work!

Posted: **Wed Aug 02, 2006 9:38 pm**

Lovely image, has a great feel about it.

Posted: **Wed Aug 02, 2006 9:39 pm**

I thought it looked good before and now I think it's a stunner of a shot.
Cheers,
Mick

Thanks all for the comments

I like the "de-kidded" version too, great stuff about digital life, you can perform de-kid action whenever wanted :lol:
