The Shard at night

The Shard at Night II

 

I’m very pleased with this shot – I had taken some shots from the Millenium Bridge a week ago – long exposure, with the camera on the side of the bridge, but many of the results had camera shake (the bridge vibrates with all the pedestrians!) – this photograph was taken from below North side of the Millenium Bridge

, with the camera on the river wall.

This was a longer exposure shot in manual mode – 45s exposure (after an couple of attempts)

Post processing to set camera calibration, boost shadows, pull back highlights and sharpen.

 

Technical details:

Nikon D80; 45s; f/11@18mm; ISO100 – non-handheld (but no tripod either!) – post processing in LR5
