The Brisbane Ekka - Sideshow Alley


kyorston

This is my second attempt at a night city-scape. Didn't manage to get to the scene until it was completely dark - would have preferred a lighter sky colour. With 100 iso film and only 30 second exposure - used a tripod and shutter release cable.

This is the Brisbane Exhibition (The Ekka) at night. There aren't

many good vantage points for this scene. If I had cropped the

intrusions at top right I would have missed the beautiful lights at

the bottom. Should I use photoshop to erase the distractions? Would

appreciate any comments on this, my second attempt, at time-exposure

shots.

I like the view as is... interesting that you don't like the dark sky. I recently did some shots of rides at night (motion blur) and my biggest concern was keeping the sky dark. Anyway, consider using tungsten balanced slide film, and doing this after sunset, but still some sky color (the excessive yellow will be reduced). I really like the effect with some rides moving and some stationary.
