My thought:

Sometimes we just encounter perfect timing.

Although, the minutes, hours and years escape us, here, time falls still. We are free and lucky.


My camera is Canon 800D with EF50mm. The photo was taken on aperture F22, sutter speed 1/125s and ISO 100.

Concept: Futuristic architecture 

The initial photo I took was teal, an extremely natural colour, but I discovered that the composition has distinct lines that are clean and ordered. To give the whole atmosphere a futuristic sense, I used Lightroom as a tool in my adjusting process.

First of all increases the saturation of yellow and blue, then reduce the amount of green saturation until the hue looks even and certainly, reduce the value of the blue tint, making the sky more magenta.

Hi welcome to Critique and thank you for sharing this Fine Art Image -- As it stands it looking great well captured... I can see this as a published image... See attache this is just my take on your image a small crop off the th top -Nik Tools Tonal Contrast painted on the bottom half to add texture last a little work with the burn tool on the bottom to help the power of impact.

Hello HLTai

Welcome back to the forum with this beautiful, atmospheric image. I like your image a lot and also Daniel's edited version, but I just want to offer an alternative that you might consider. I have cropped a little on the left and clearly a lot of the sky, even though I do like the space of your sky. I have adjusted the tones slightly too. I emphasise that I don't think this is better than your version or Daniel's, just different and you may reject it of course.

Good light, Elizabeth

Thank you so much Daniel for taking the time to give me advice; I completely agree with your suggestion to crop off the top; I believe it will better emphasize the subject matter.

Elizabeth, I appreciate you taking the time to give me advice. I find what you stated to be really enlightening and beneficial as I continue to be a student and attempt to learn more from you guys. 

Everyone's interpretation of this image and feelings are unique, and I respect that! 

Thank you once more:)
