Manhattan sunset (2)

This is gorgeous! I've seldom seen a cityscape this beautiful. I first notice the colors, then the gentle curve of the horizon, then the detail. Only one concern: it doesn't seem terribly sharp. I would have liked to see you use a smaller aperture for such a wonderful image.

it's beautiful. my favorite time of day you have captured.

Excellent. This image really glows, and the blue coloration is very effective.

... the problem was in the processing of this picture. I made some corrections and uploaded a better version.

 

Thanks for the remark.

Christian, a wonderful view youve captured. Why is it so blue? It works fine here anyway. I find it difficult to photograph New York cityscapewhat new can you possibly say herebut Ive never seen such a photo before I must admit. Cheers --Sergei

Too much sky?

Serguei, all this blue is dued to the use of "tungsten" film, balanced for interior lightning.

Charles, for a version with less sky, look here Manhattan sunset (3).

Bizarre colors. Great use of tungsten film in the 'wrong' conditions. Very moody and interesting.

Christian, I liked the shot so much that I thought Id go back with a suggestion. What if this image is de-saturated in PS and then tritone-colored, e.g. shadows in black, mid-tones in blue, highlights in yellow? Just an idea

Great use of tungsten film. Never crossed my mind that it could produce such an effect. Stunning cityscape picture.

Maybe too much blue ?

Thanks for any critique.
