A few night cityscapes of Perth

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

G'day Darb,
Great cityscapes, Perth seems a very photogenic city... #3, for me with the pano feel, although I'd be tempted to clone out the tree that's encroaching in the right hand border... Wondering about the lone light that seems to be in the water??? Is it a boat in the harbour or something?

Cheers.

Nice one Darb (as always) :)

3 because of the pano but 4 because the horizon is straight :) In 3, the right is a lower than the left.

Hi Darb,
Nice to see another city other than Sydney!
Did you handhold these shots with a high ISO setting?
Just noticing grain and a slight tilt in the pictures you have.
I like the dark moody feel with the cloud formations. :D

I like the dark cloud over the centre of the city in the last shot. Looks like something out of ghostbusters is about to engulf the city in darkness!

Another vote for the last one. It sure does have a dark moody feel about it.
