These were taken whilst I was away over the last weekend.

First attempts at shooting the stars (Zenitar 16mm f/2.



From Nelson Head Lighthouse

The third is really nice Cam - liking that
The first two whilst OK I reckon need some proper foreground to make them work properly

They are all nice photos, but the 3rd is the winner.

These were with the camera pointed straight up...there really was nothing to put in the foreground (we were on beach to get away from the light pollution).

thanks, that was one of those "test" shots that just worked.

Nice pastels in that 3rd one Cam , nicely spotted and captured.

The last image is crying out for a portrait crop or vertical panorama great looking sunrise..

Also dial down the border and sig on these images, its at the point of distraction imo, mainly due to the contrast, maybe just give it 50% opacity or something..

Ty Gerry (border is part of my generic resize for web action). I would never dream of printing with that.

Can you do a mock up of that vertical pano crop...I must be silly but I am not seeing where to take the scalpel at the moment.

Zenitar? The Russian Leica?

I would have included some more on the bottom, but this is the general gist.

Thanks Gerry, there isnt any more beneath what is there....but I agree it does feel like it needs a bit more bottom

All brilliant Cameron.
