Some shots taken while waiting for my youngest to finish roller skating. Certainly nice to have a camera handy.

SpecialK · 12-04-2010, 07:25 PM

Nice shots but the tilt is distracting.

**Scottnorwo** · 12-05-2010, 12:08 PM

thanks, will work on that tilt. hard to find level in the dark and on a slope.

**Sailor** · 12-05-2010, 12:41 PM

Cool shots, Scott. The first one is very well done - great conversion.

I love the second one, but the tilt is obvious indeed.
The control of light is very good though!

Thanks Jer, It is a shot that looked some much better BW than original color

I never worry about it when shooting because it is futile.

I don't use the Pentax software, but I think it has a leveling feature.

If not, Photoshop Elements is pretty cheap, I think under $50 with the rebate. I automatically reach for the leveling tool in PP.

I like the reflections in both, very nice night shots. thanks Bob

**Tamia** · 12-06-2010, 08:41 AM

Well done. As others mentioned, straightening the horizon with PP will greatly enhance them.

Thanks Tamia. Here are straightened shots

Beautiful shots. I love the first one. Makes it look like a prision court yard almost.

Lainey · 12-07-2010, 02:51 AM

love the second one, that colour is lovely. Reflections really make it here.

vievetrick · 12-07-2010, 06:55 AM

I am a huge fan of night shots. Great work and the straight versions work much better for me :-)

Thanks for the comments. the building on the left is an old resturant which burned down about 4 years ago, rebuilding was started but not finished.

Thanks, night shots are always a challenge, especially on sloping ground in the snow
