Montreal at dusk

I've frozen my ass off in almost arctic weather and almost lost

fingers doing it to shoot this, so at least leave a small comment!

 

Thanks!

You must have one skinny ass now! :)

 

I love your photo. It was worth your suffering to get this shot. I wish you had taken this using a tripod but, oh well. Next time. I might would crop a little off the top and give it a nice frame. The evening sky is lovely for miles as we can clearly thanks to your skill.

 

Well done!

Thansk a lot for the comment, and I DID use a tripod, but I was going so fast that it trembled a little on about all my shots! And I couldn't put it the way I wanted (one leg on the small wall that you don't see and the 2 others on the ground) because my hands would've fallen off! But I'll go back in the summer and take a full evening to shoot it at different states, that'll be great!

 

Thanks again!

I'm sorry. I should have read your technical details fully. Still, it is an excellent shot. :)

Like the shot. As far as the sky, I like the wide expanse - it's a different view than your typical cityscape.

 

When I shoot photos on tripod, I usually use the self-timer to prevent camera shake. However, as far as the cold, when I shot photos on the top of Mt. Washington in New Hampshire, the cold temperature (-10 F) and wind chill factor (-75 F) really prevents you from taking your time - I think it is a survival reflex. Anyway, good work under very adverse conditions.

Yeah, that must've been painful... But if you have good eqipment (hot and thin gloves) and not just cheap cotton gloves, it surely is better! Anyway, -75F is pretty bad though, that's like ARCTIC weather!

What stops this from being cliche is A) that wonderful cool overtone, and B) the vast area devoted to sky. I like it!

Thanks =) Actually, it's one of my favorite pictures to date (I've got it printed 8*10 right in front of me)
