    I really like all the different shades that this photo displays......My only nit is the bright white lights, in particular the ones in the center. The reason being is that as my eyes are wandering around taking in the various colors and the white is a distraction. Still it is a very nice photo.

    Gus you are good hand holding that lens !!!!! 1/2 sec Incredible !!!! Should get a small tripod and keep in your car


    Agree with William and would tame the bright lights All else looks very good Might consider getting rid of some water to move the horizon further to the lower third From that are you made the image at times there are incredible colors You got some nice ones but they can be spectacular Not really how to predict the good ones Only way is to go day after day.

    btw this images are extra neat when you do a pano !!!

    Gus: like the shot, in my humble opinion maybe you could have move the shot more to the right in order not to cut a bit of the building. What do you think? I've taken shots from the same place and about the same time, I'll try to post one later so we can compare.
    Have a great day.

    i know i posted on this earlier today but i dont see it so here goes. gus i love the colors and the brite lites dont bother me a lot. the only thing i could suggest is to add a little usm. geez man, you must be a robot to hold that thing for .5 seconds!! do have to agree with oscar about not cutting off the building on the right.

    how often does that bay go completely calm at nite? if it were to go glass, that would be cool to get the reflection in the water.

    I think we need to get Gus to use a tripod just to go with his logo! :p

    Nice one Gus, you have good ideas here already. I like the idea of a little off the bottom here also .
