Brooklyn Brdige Park Pics for C&C

[colonelcamp]

Hi,

Attached are some pics I took of the BK Bridge and lower Manhattan skyline.

I think they look terrible. They don't look as sharp as I think they should.

Please let me know what you guys think.

Thanks,
Danny

A little soft...clearly a long exposure, judging by the water and the flag; probably motion blur. Can you post exif data?

The don't just look soft. The look out of focus. I think there was some skaking where i was positioned. I was on some rocks right below the Manhattan bridge. It felt pretty solid and I didn't feel any shake but there must have been something.

The one that ends in cc_b:
30s f 14 iso 100

The other one:
20s f14 iso 200

Your pictures got me thinking about this type of shot, as I like to do the same (long exposure, landscape). I would like to qualify my initial reply, as it's not necessarily motion blur. I started this thread to explore the issue of motion blur under this type of scenario in greater depth: http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/...g-exposures-motion-blur-tripod-vibration.html
