Perth City at Night 2 (Part 1/2)

These are some of the shots that I personally like from the date cum photoshoot two nights ago (thank you L for being so patient with me!). I can honestly say that I had not done a thorough editing work, but more like a little bit of each shots’ brightness, contrast, noise, exposure and white balance.

The shots  were mostly taken with RAW and a few JPG. No tripod, still waiting for my job to settle down. I only used my 18-55m VR (VR was kept on) and my Nikon D60 all night long. No flash on all except the last one with built-in flash (too lazy and cold to set up my SB-400). ISO were mostly Auto up to 1600, except for a few. If you need the EXIF, just leave a comment below and I’ll provide it.

Alright, on to the pictures. Enjoy:

I converted this into B&W using my camera from RAW, but I wanted to show the colour here.

The Violin guy who plays extremely soothing tune. I know the shot isn’t the best, but I.. like it.

    What settings were you using for the bus stop and couple shot?

      @rich -
      Hi Rich, sorry for the late reply. Settings for the bus stop and couple shot?

      Bus stop = (Auto) ISO 360, f/4.5, 1/15 (VR On), Manual, No flash, Spot metering (I think on the guy’s top).
      Couple = (Auto) ISO 1100, f/4.2, 1/13 (VR On), Manual, No flash, Spot metering (I think on the windows).

      Hope this helps and sorry for the late reply. Have a great weekend!
