Title: Princes Pier, Port Melbourne
Post by: shadowblade on February 08, 2014, 01:37:21 pm
Wooden pillars are all that remains of Princes Pier, Port Melbourne, pending its redevelopment.

Street lights illuminate the pillars at dusk, with the sunset fading into the south-west (right of image).

Quite a lot of colour was lost in conversion for web, since so much of the cyan/teal spectrum lies outside of sRGB colour space.

Still lots of color to see.  :)  Beautiful image, thanks for posting it.

Great! Try also shooting a bit earlier without the lights on the pillars.

Beautiful and rich image, though I'd love to see black birds sitting on the poles ...
Cheers

Nice image.
Beautiful and depressing at the same time!

I'm very glad there weren't black birds on the poles - with an exposure time of 24 seconds, they wouldn't have kept still enough to keep from motion blurring!

This is both surreal and beautiful!
