    Sharjah Friday Night

    The date: 17 January 2014

    1. A shot from Yesterday Friday night [Now here it is 01:35am Saturday]

    Sharjah Friday Night

    When i almost arrived there my car heat went bad and the radiator made a sound with smoke coming out from the car, so i stopped fortunately on the parkings, and one of people helped me by leaving his car and letting me to park in his place.

    This is the link of the shot above in a larger size, it is a panorama from 3 horizontal [landscape] frames

    Resizing it killed the quality, i liked it very much, long time ago when i did shoot it with different cameras and lenses, today was a good clear weather i could manage to have this stitched shot. What do you think, looking at small resized one i feel it is underexposed?!!!

    Striking and beautiful job. I think it's quite lovely as dark as it is - I think it's a matter of taste and thus opinion.

    WOW, my first sharing post, i never expected to have replies that fast.

    Thank you very very much, i so appreciate it from you.

    Well, i couldn't do better due to me thinking about the car issue, and because friday is a weekend and there were many people or families around, i was with my older daughter, so i couldn't give the shots justice, but i am really happy with what i've got so far and i know i may do slightly better another time if possible.

    Very nice work Tareq. I had a look at the full sized versions in PS at 100% view and the clarity is excellent. I also opened up a Levels Adjustment layer and moved the white point slider down to about 200 on the first image. This brightened up the brighter parts of the shot and gave it a little more "punch" IMO. Same for the second shot but used a gradient to restrict this to the right side of the shot. But it's really just a matter of personal taste.

    Well done

    Dave

    Hi, Tareq. Both images are nicely executed. IMO the composition on the second is far superior. Really a lovely image. Nice work.
