FOG OVER KOWLOON - a photo on Flickriver

FOG OVER KOWLOON

A bit of an experiment. 12 image 5 sec exposure pano plus highlights from 1 sec exposure. Check out the large resolution! I will touch it up here and there the coming days.

I wanted to practice making a high resolution image of Hong Kong for a long while. Finally we had a day with relatively clean skies to try it. We have a blue "minute". More often a grey one actually. It was quite a challenge to get the images with the light changing so fast. It should be easier I hope in the summer! The benefit is that I know now which settings work. If you don't live in Hong Kong you probably can't imagine this was actually the best sky we have seen in weeks!

I haven't been online a lot lately. I'm studying for part II of my financial risk manager's exam. It's good to leave my computer for what it is now and then;).
