Wonderfull set Alan. Moody, detailed and with great colours.

Best regards

Lovely, I really enjoyed looking at these (envy:mrgreen

Wonderful set these Alan. Great compositions and the colours are stunning.

Very nice set Alan. Particularly like the odd numbers - 1, 3, 5.

I have been wanting to have a crack at these for some time but not being particularly familiar with the river front area -or which areas to avoid with the gear after dark - never seem to get around to it.

This is a wonderful colourful set Alan. The Newcastle-Gateshead Quayside area is a terrific place for photography and you've nailed it perfectly here. They are all good but if I had to pick a favourite it would be No.3.
I spend a lot of time photographing in this area, but always in the daytime when the area takes on a different character. Much as I love these colourful night shots I hate working with a tripod so that rules out nocturnal adventures there.

Very nicely composed images, and wonderful colours.

Cheers.

Love the shot on the High Level Alan.
No drunks either, you timed it good!
Never been brave enough to try a Tripod shot up there, always seem to be undesirables in the vacinity...

Hi Alan,

I keep being drawn back to the first image and how you've controlled those street lights. It is the colour of the set that is most striking. Well done.

Excellent set of images...its very nice of the council to light up these structures in the attractive manner they do!

Great set there Alan , the High level bridge is the one for me.

Like them all and couldn't pick a favourite

Blimey these are good. I thought the K3 was supposed to be noisy in low light. Very impressive. Professional.

Very professional looking, yes, would clearly look fabulous on the cover of a glossy book on architecture in the city or something like that! I particularly like the one where the bridge in the distance appears underneath the main nearer bridge, but they all ooze a special character and dynamism. Brilliant work !

These are great Alan, a superb advert for your skills as a photographer.

Don't believe everything you read Andrew! The K-3 is a superb camera, the best I have ever had. I've had no complaints about image noise with mine.

Regards
David
