You really captured the character of this place. I love the energy of it. Kinda makes me think of some parts of NY. peace…

patriciaann1, 4 months ago

Hi Alistair I wondered if you would answer a question, did you take 9 images and make them into 3 hdrs then merge them again..thanks Pat
Alistair Wilson in reply to patriciaann1’s comment, 4 months ago

yep, thats how i did it
Elana Bailey, 4 months ago

This is really eye-catching. I would have taken this really quickly too, at midnight! Well done indeed.
Kate Towers IPA, 4 months ago

Paul Compton, 4 months ago

Wow. What a tremendous shot. Terrific work Alistair.
Michael Kienhuis, 4 months ago

wow! Sensational
Jason Connolly, 4 months ago

Superb shot Alistair, love the perspective,details colours and light…
You mention 9 shots, 3 HDrs, does this make a significant difference to the finished shot?
Alistair Wilson in reply to Jason Connolly’s comment, 4 months ago

i mean 9 shots in the sense that i have just stitched 3 HDR shots together. If i had taken just one hdr shot ( 3 images) i wouldnt have been able to capture the whole laneway with my non wide lense (18 – 55)
Jason Connolly, 4 months ago

LOL,Hi again Alistair I’ve just gone and reread, LOL, missunderstood, yeah great stitch,really done well here.
Graham Lea, 4 months ago

This is amazing Alistair – I’ve been wandering Melbourne at 5am, staying in Flinders St and the drunks were still around then! I’ve had several ask for their photos to be taken, though I do worry about getting my camera grabbed!
