Amusement Park -- C&C please!

hercry1441 · Jun 12, 2008

These were taken at Kennywood Park, and most of them only served to teach me that I need a tripod. The ones taken in the daytime were decent, but the night ones were quite awful because I couldn't hold the camera steady. This is the salvage-able stuff from it. Criticism is much appreciated!!

1)

2) similar to 1, which is better?

3)

4)

i think this one could be a lot better with the right pp to make it stand out a bit more, but unfortunately i have no clue how to do it...

5) Just need help on this one... What, if anything, could I have done to eliminate those ugly lights in the middle?!

Thanks for looking!!

I actually like the first shot better than the second, there is less foreground distraction and the angle seems to be better.

I have a hard time making out that the amusement park is an amusement park in the first two photos ... looks like an industrial estate to me more than anything else

. The same applies to Photo 4

Yes. Once night falls, the tripod is your friend! You have learnt that firsthand this time, haven't you?

Oh pictures 1, 2, and 4 are shots of Pittsburgh taken from the Park.. I probably should have clarified that haha.

And yes, I don't think I'll be forgetting that lesson anytime soon.. =/

1 is better than 2 because I dont like the bush popping up in the middle of 2

not bad for no tripod, but imagine if you had one how much better it would have been

I would say to eliminate those lights you would have had to move your self so they were behind the fountain
