View of the West Pier from the East Pier near sunset. Couldn’t help the blur unfortunately, I had the aperture wide open and the camera sitting on the railing and it still blurred! I think the auto focussing let me down.

This sunset was only at 3:43pm, not too long later and it was really dark. Quite depressing really.

Earlsdon Sunrise
Earlsdon (10-12-2006)
Canon Powershot S2 IS
Lens Aperture: F/2.7
Shutter Speed: 1/13s
Focal Length: 6mm (36mm)
Filters: UV & PL (Through double glazing)
Post Processing: Changed the levels on the skyline part of the image for some weak attempt at a higher dynamic range.
The photo didn’t look anywhere near as vivid as reality so I had to try and digitally recreate it without blowing it all out too much. It kinda worked, but its not great I admit.
