Sky Over Auckland
When I looked out the window yesterday, I jumped off the computer and ran upstairs with my camera and tripod and took a few snaps of the most surreal sky I have ever seen! - What I was going for was a shot of the birds in flight, while still having the buildings and sky, I hope it's not too busy.
Also, this shot completely ignores the rule of thirds, and centers on the birds and sky, yet it still seems apealing to me. Should I worry less about rule of thirds? - Did this technique work? The grain is from compression I had to use to get it under 100kb. Last edited by Wazu : 23rd of March 2007 (Fri) at 00:38. |

Re: Sky Over Auckland

Beautiful sky colors. "The eeuenynge maad, ye seien, It shal be cleer, for the heuene is lijk to reed; and the morwe, To day tempest, for heuen shyneth heuy, or sorwful." |

Re: Sky Over Auckland
From Matthew 14, the Wyclif Bible, 1395. The more modern translation is "When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and louring."
The origin of 'red sky at night, sailor's delight - red sky in morning, sailors take warning'. |
