Well done! I've been struggling with shooting that place for a week now. Glad you've had such wonderful success with it.

It would be nice if they allowed tripods in there.

would benefit from a slightly flatter aspect ratio, but this is so cool

I would have liked a little more patience to ensure the blurred skaters were further away and not such a focal point. The setting is beautiful and the other elements of a great shot are all there.
I'm on the fence ...

Even nicer large. Great detail with the blur.

Khidja, it's already been saved.
Just waiting around for some admin to add the requisite tags.
Irene Clouds (42 months ago | reply)
my mistake than
sorry
andertho (42 months ago | reply)
I'd simply pull it and drop it into The Florio (which is what I used to do since the usual admin always just boots my pic without tagging it), but Corin took to yanking any Florio shot that had not been properly tagged & bagged.
Thus, this pic is in Limbo.

Congratulations, Tom!
Feel free to move this over to The FOLIO.
Be sure to add it to the DM Gallery as well and choose one photo to remove.
andertho (42 months ago | reply)
No. I'm a special case.
My save10s usually just get booted with no tag at all.
yospyn (42 months ago | reply)
The color and detail is extraordinarily strong, it's fantastic.
