Just wondered, is this particular place in the UK? If so is it Severalls?

Nope, west park

Ahh shame. May I ask what camera and lens you were using? And the data for that third image you posted, the corridor with the doors?

John Godwin · Sep 17, 2009

Sure, all shot with a 5D2 as far as I remember and a 24-70L. If not, it was a 50D and a 10-22. The third image is a 15 exposure HDR, I can't remember the camera I used, but I think it was taken at 24mm F8

Lovely, thanks ever so much

Nice gear btw

John Godwin · Sep 17, 2009

Thanks, but the gear doesn't mean much, you could've taken any of those shots with a decent point and click. None of the scenes had any particularly tricky exposure requirements

I just tried to find the original raw for the third shot to get the EXIF data, but I couldn't find it. If I do I'll update this thread with the proper settings..

I'm going to try. The place I'm going to is very dark that's all. It'll be my first time using a tripod though so I can leave the shutter open longer. And my camera doesn't cope too well at anything over ISO 200.

But we shall see! I'm feeling confident.

Meanwhile have you got a flick or website anywhere for your other shots?

John Godwin · Sep 17, 2009

You'll be fine with ISO 200 especially with a tripod. Anything higher and just convert to black and white. High noise images look nice and edgy in monochrome, especially with the subject matter you'll be shooting.

Yeah, I have my blog, and Flickr
