Photo Of The Day - October 2017

[kallisti]

It was a very nice sunrise looking out the office window this morning.

Great shot! The light is fantastic! My only quibble is the presence of the distortion--I really want the lines of the window frame to be vertical rather than bowing inward going from the bottom to the top of the frame. Wish you had tilted the camera slightly down at the time of capture to get the best composition from a perspective standpoint. Maybe play with the perspective sliders in LR?

Good to see you back. Bring on those glorious night colour/color shots.

Thanks. It's monochrome for the time being, I'm afraid but I am working on some colour shots, probably start appearing here in the new year.

Good shot!

it's a good mushroom year. A 9/10 according to some people.

Good shot!

Cheers, pretty gusty wind so difficult to get a steady shot. Here's one of the nearby Napoleonic-era fort. Comments always appreciated.

I haven't been out with my camera in a few months. So, this weekend, I got the chance to get out on my own and do some exploring.....

An old footbridge....

Have you considered cropping off a bit of the grass?

Have you considered cropping off a bit of the grass?

Not sure a lawnmower and shorter grass would fundamentally change the image would it?


Ah mate! I know I am the only one, but I am sat here chuckling away to myself at that one...

yes, I need to review my meds, I know...

I've reported you

This is something I have learned to live with when I take photos at the office. I'm using my iPhone and Lightroom Mobile to edit them. Right now LR Mobile doesn't have the perspective controls in the mobile app, so I can't fix distortions. Also I had to tilt the camera to get it to line up the lighting right, so that added a bit of distortion, too. When I take a photo out the window, the buildings lean inward, too. I don't usually take time to go back and fix it later.

Thanks, I hadn't thought of that.

Some doors I shot in Amsterdam. So glossy!

Is this Warren Hall?

 

[Janichsan]

Here in Münster, the decennial "Sculpture Projects" ended recently. That's a public art exhibition with sculptures all over the city, including this concrete mountain:

Yes it is, good spot.

You must be local. I'm not far from there, but haven't been since 2014.

5 minute walk, it’s a nice place in a morning but the chavs go over there on a night.
