[Scotland 2017] Panorama of Saint Giles Church and Walter Scott Monument in the Morning, Edinburgh

in photography •  7 years ago 

Scotland-6.jpg

When I captured panorama of the Hub it was still dark. But very soon I noticed the first rays of sun and noticeable glow in the sky from coming sunrise. I finished with the Hub and run to Saint Giles Church to shoot composition I planned long before.

The composition idea was the following:

  1. I chose very low camera position to emphasise cobblestones.

  2. Cobblestones forms diagonal curves leading from left bottom corner to Walter Scott statue.

  3. One more diagonal line - the edge of the road - leads from the statue to Saint Giles Church.

  4. Saint Giles Church is the main focal point and main subject. The sun rising behind the church add some dreamy glow around the church.

  5. As a very welcome bonus I've got beautiful diagonal cloud, which appeared in the sky at the moment of shooting.

Technical details:

did u try HDR for this picture??i think it will look better..

@vargart This is HDR, manually blended in Photoshop with masks from 5 exposures -2 EV, -1 EV, 0, +1 EV, +2 EV. If you mean some auto HDR software like Photomatix or Aurora - I don't like the look of such auto blending. Do it manually more difficult but you have full control on how it will look.

Very nice composition my friend. Lots of leading lines, and I love the colours from the rays of sun and the affect they have on the clouds.

Wonderful!!!

Well done! And thanks for the explanation of composition idea

@dmytrokorol Welcome!

Beautiful architectural view, and it's throwing the pure grey essence and addon effect in this picture is the reddish clouds. Thanks for sharing.

Have a great day and stay blessed.

My camera roll is filled with so many photos of this church, such a beautiful building! Do you know if the Avengers movie which did lots of filming in Edinburgh has been released yet? I saw they were filming around the back of this, where the big long stain glass windows are.
