EV Compensation.
Was playing around with EV compensation tonight but the rain sort of spoilt the experiment.

nice effort Oneputt. It's a pity about the blown highlights on the road.
I do love the dark blue sky though....and the composition. Dave

I don't know what experiments you were doing, but I like the end result on this shot. The blown highlights don't bother me.

It would be a tough job to remove the highlight on the road - you could mask it in PS but purists would probably say that was cheating. Very nice work!

The image is fine and conveys the mood of the subject. Sometimes we have to accept a few imperfections because the media can't look at what is there and turn it into what it thinks most folk want to see.

Love the photo, but absolutely hate the way the jpeg compression has changed teh clouds into clumps of bloated pixels
I think everyone has agreed on this one that the blown highlights aren't a big issue! I agree! In the days of film people didn't mention blown highlights half as much (hang on, this forum didn't exist so that's kind of a moot point!!).
Anyway, I like landscapes taken just after rain. David Noton (UK's best landscape photog IMO) thinks that rain adds a very useful and useable element to cityscapes. So there! Having said all that, you will always struggle to avoid blown highlights with long exposures like this. In order to get that glorious blue glow in the sky you need to expose to the point where a lot of city lights will be overexposed.. Liam =]
I love it - although as stated the sky is a bit blotchy but this can be compensated for by redoing from the original

that's interesting, neither did I. At home on my CRT monitor I can't say I noticed it (though I was tired at the time - from memory). here at work this morning on my LCD monitor, I can clearly notice the compression. What sort of monitor are you viewing it on Oneputt ?? Dave

I realise the whole point of the experiment was to avoid the blown highlights, but seriously, they look good......I think you have captured the image well......
It does look a bit blotchy on my monitor, but still a nice image. Cheers Deb "Sometimes when you are sad Poko, it's good to hug the monkey."
Just did a test with the LCD and CRT sitting side by side, you notice less of the compression issue on the CRT than on the LCD...oh well
 I thought you were going to refer to the size of Homer's brain 
Much better
It's still tiny a bit but that's if you're really pedantic and squint to look for every bit of pixel block
