Went to Hoboken with some friends yesterday to take photos of the city from the other side :D We have taken many images from the east side. It's time to shoot from the west :D Weather cooperated and we got a NICE sunset. Here' s a shot I took at sunset with the Big Stopper and polarizer, 4 min exposure :D Thanks for looking!

It's so peaceful and beautiful. I like the three visible layers on your photo: blue sky, golden buildings and blue water.

Thanks atexasphotog! Only removing I did was dust. The main work was enhancing the color. The RAW file right out of the camera was very dull. After adjusting my highlights, shadows, white and black points it wasn't so dull anymore. The rest of my editing was enhancing the colors. Here's a before, RAW right out of the camera, and after, final edit, screenshot from Lightroom...

Great shot and excellent PP as well!

If I don't get the shots I want with the gear I have, the only optics I need to examine is the mirror on the bathroom wall. The root cause will be there.

QUOTED IMAGE

Could it be the vignetting I added?
