Starry lights That purely from the F/8'ness of the shot or did you have a star filter attached...i've got one but it never seems to get used.

Also like the wobblyness of the central chap in the first picture.

[Potatojunkie]

It's from the aperture.

Thinking about it, it looks like that guy's just beamed in there.

He could've been more impressive. It's the difference between Captain Kirk appearing and striding about and Boris Yeltsin hazing into view and slowly toppling over.

Beautiful catch of the central one though, I'll never have the patience for the flappy wee beasties no matter how pretty you've made them look!

I want the lighthouse in the first to be sharp and the sky colour in the second to be real? (is it?!)

Am rather jealous of both though cos it is AN AGE + A HALF since I have taken twilight pics!

hrmm, maybe looks a little too blue colour cast over all? But that might just be me not knowing what real sunshine looks like

Tiny because i just nocked it off my bebo, bigger one here, taken with just my phone.

sort of idea that sounds silly when you talk about it but is not too bad when done...i think :-p

Stupid f/1.8.

Also, um, kind of? I didn't interfere with it beyond correcting the overall white balance.

Twilight keeps right on happening. There was some just there. I missed it because I'm a pudding.

Nice classic feel to it. I like the one on the black background better, but.

I fucking hate that tunnel.

A set of stairs and a bridge would take less than half the time to walk across!
