"Painted Ladies"

Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Urban Landscapes IV (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-550D Rebel T2i
Location: Alamo Square, San Francsico CA
Date: Mar 8, 2012
Aperture: f16
ISO: 100
Shutter: 2~15 seconds
Date Uploaded: Mar 13, 2012

These are the famous "Painted Ladies" in San Francsico.

I took full advantage of the Advanced editing - the "ladies" were one shot and the background city was another.
Although there are still too many hotspots for my taste, this image is about as good as I could do with a freezing girlfriend that night.

I hope to go back again when it is clear to spend some more time (a future challenge maybe?)

Superb use of DoF here, but I think it isn't quite sharp enough where it needs to be. Love how the townhomes look miniature! The composition is great too! Nice lines and layers!

This is really nice. I love how your layers draw the eye across the grass, to the houses, over the roofs and into the city. Looks a bit too yellow on my monitor, perhaps a cooler white balance would reduce the yellow and blue the sky. Good luck

bright lights everywhere... I like it. and I really like how you've captured the city behind the homelife. nicely done

I like the contrast with the focus on the residences while the business area gets "put away for the night".

Too soft.
