Sandnes by Night, a photo from Rogaland, South

Photographer's Note

Standing at the top of Bogafjell, were I live. The view is amazing. And in this crystal clear night with the stars up and shining I took a picture I've been longing to capture. It's not the best, but I'll try to make a better one when my hands are not falling of because of the cold.

Hope you like it:)

Excellent night shot with great mastering of city light. The panoramic format is a very good choice for this compo. Congratulations!

Hei P.C.

Strange... In day time, Sandnes is far from a nice place. More of an eye soar. But at night, when the lights come on... The city changes to a lovely sea fo light. I like how you captured this. TFS.

Halloen PC

Magnificent view, the nighttime atmosphere works well to portrait the various features of Sandnes.
Composition looks very good, very pleasant to watch, especially with the houses in the foreground and the calm sky in the background.

I see why you are now interested in night views. This one has a good sharpness (even though it could be even sharper), but perhaps a bit dark despite the many lights. The best moment in my opinion remains the beginning of the night, when you still have some blue color in the sky, or on the contrary latter for a very dark (and black one) sky(but for this, you have to go out the cities, where there are to many street lights, but then you can avoid the brownish color).

All the best,

Emmanuel

Hello Per Chr,
Last time I was in Sandnes it wasn't quite like this,
the place has seen some development indeed!
Well done on the night time exposure, the houses up front provides a sense of depth...

Hi PeCO. Nice capture, you even have some clouds to liven the sky. Good handling of light and well composed. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.
