Yaletown is the concrete residential district of Vancouver's downtown area.

Shot for long-exposure from Granville Island. What my question to you is, would you correct the whitebalance on the photo? Or would you just leave it as is?

Nice shot. I think the whitebalance on a shot like this is all a matter of personal preference and the "look" your after. I would crop off the right hand side of the picture to give the composition a little more balance, and take the glare out of that bright light in the foreground. But thats just me.

The water was moving as were the little people boats, so they wouldn't have stayed still for a 20-30second exposure so I could see that being soft or blurry.


Yea the light is a bit harsh. I'll play with it a bit.
