whatsthatbeeping
I like this one a little more than the portrait comp, it gives it some scale.
Peter Hill replied
I think I’m leaning towards the same view now. Thanks for the tip!

Lance Jackson
Very nice use of long exposure in this shot. Well done
Peter Hill replied
Thanks Lance. It was a challenge, and it was tempted to cut it short. There was a howling gale blowing and I had to lean over the camera to act as a windbreak.
Wanda Raines
Beautifully done.
Peter Hill replied
Thanks Wanda!
Lorraine Creagh
My favourite part of this shot is the lighting of the sky behind the city. I love the long exposure. Works so well.
Peter Hill replied
Thanks Lorraine. I envisaged this shot while curled up in bed at 6am listening to a howling gale outside and deciding not to go to the RB Cockatoo Island shoot as a result.
PeterBusser
You keep on surprising me with wonderful ultra-long exposure captures. Love the depth in this shot because of the rocks in the front and the skyline of Sydney… Great!
Peter Hill replied
Glad u like it Peter! Thanks!
Craig Hender

Vikram Franklin
Without doubt one of the most excellent city-scapes I’ve ever seen. Brilliant use of the ND400 to get the most of the sky and water.
Peter Hill replied
Thank you very much Vikram!!
Tim Souter
that ND400 really brings a misty effect into the water, I love your images so much. Also when I open RB I find myself hoping you’ve uploaded something new just to see what comes next!

Nice shot! Congratulations on your homepage feature!!
Peter Hill replied
Hey Ron, I only found out when I saw your comment! Thanks!
WOOHOO !!!!!!!!!
Tim Souter
Nice job on the front page Peter :)
Looks on front page: “That’s a Peter Hill photo”. clicks
And sure enough it is.
I still love this one and am currently looking at buying myself the black glass. My only issue is u’m not sure if I should get it for my wide, or my 18-200.
Peter Hill replied
Thanks Tim!
The price for the black glass varies considerably in terms of supplier and diameter. The smaller the diameter the cheaper. The Tamron 10-24mm has a 77mm diameter, whereas the 18-200mm has a 72mm diameter.

Vim Lowenstein
we should sell your sydney to the world, something different from the usual.
I like this one
Peter Hill replied
I’ll be in that! thanks Vim.
Robert Brindley
Eventually we will bump into each other at this, my favourite place in Sydney. Each time I am there (and this applies to most places) it will look different and never cease to remind me why Sydney is the best place on earth. It helps, of course that I live close by.
This has all the elements that make a superb image; the perfectly balanced composition; atmospheric exposure; and of course the choice of subject. For the view alone makes it worth returning again and again. Superb work.
Peter Hill replied
Thanks Robert – I’ll keep an eye out for you next time I’m there!
