Hey all,

 

During my trip to Vienna & Budapest, I was experimenting with a lot

of night photography. My results were for the most part less-than-

thrilling. I was mostly using Ilford Pan F 50 film, and I was

having problems with the highlights washing out and the shadows way

under exposed. I had better luck with the Delta 100 film. This is

one of my night shots with the Pan F 50; any comments or suggestions

will be most appreciated. Thanks!

This scored points with me on two levels:

 

First, I love and collect Vintage Port. So anything that has to do with Port, Portugal, the Duoro, etc is always a nice subject to me.

 

Second, I'm fascinated by night shots. I love the color in this, and the exposure is excellent. My only complaint is that it doesn't seem incredibly sharp; but this could be due to fog or other environmental issues.

 

Love it, though!

Great composition, but I think a red filter would have removed or lessened the freckles... For some reason I think they take away a bit from the photo.... I like what you did with the depth of field, though.
