TTW - FDR Drive / Con Edison - a photo on Flickriver

            Testing a new Canon G1X Mark II camera - this was in a taxi on the home. The driver was driving like a lunatic and I kept hitting the EVF to my eye but I managed to get this shot on the FDR Drive. I had the camera set to Shutter priority but maybe not fast enough because the image is somewhat soft. That could also be because of the F/2.8 aperture that the camera chose. 

I did a bit of manual perspective correction (as much as I dared) and needed to adjust highlights at right side and increase blacks below the vans parked along the road.

One thing is certain, I would NOT have been able to get even this with the original G1X. The Mark II focuses much, much quicker!
