Last sun rays over Helsinki

A quick post for today, will come back with replies and critiques when I'm home again, but I couldn't resist to post this impression of the last sun rays of the day over the harbor of Helsinki. Despite the industries on the background I enjoyed the view on the end of the day over the capital of Finland.

PP work. Used jpeg image, adjusted layers and curves, used unsharpen mask, resized and used unsharpen mask for a second time with a different setting.

jaaah.. het licht op die pijp en op de rookwolk is echt heel mooi! toch zou ik de foto een heel klein tikje naar rechts draaien. Hij heeft maar een heel klein tikje nodig...
Verder is het een foto met veel detials en er is dan ook veel te zien... eentje waar je naar blijft kijken zogezegd.

Hi Hans,
Whats a beautiful last sun rays over Helsinki and wonderful urban-industrial view. Vivid colors, nice landscape and sky, sun light on the buildings and tubes creates fantastic atmosphere...
Excellent work.

Hallo hans.
Wat een zeer bijzonder ligt zo tegen het avond gloren. Erg mooi vast gelegd en een sterke compositie met die witte rookpluim.

Groet Frans

Hello Hans,
Perfect light and colours, you chose good time for such splendid view town and sky.
Regards, Pawel

Hi Hans,
Very beautiful capture of light on this industrial landscape! The aky and the smoke are wonderful!
Well composed photo with a good perspective and use of thirds. Just a light tilt at the right side!
Bravo! Annie

questa non è una semplice foto ma una vera e propria opera d'arte!
tu sei un maestro e tutte le tue foto son fantastiche.
bellissima immagine Hans sei in numero uno!

Hoi Hans,
Ik zou het niet weten van die horizon. Ik denk dat het eerder te maken heeft met een lichte lens distortie samen met een natuurlijk vertekend beeld. Als je de foto naar rechts draait weet ik zeker dat er daarna vertikalen aan de rechterkant fout komen te staan. Er is meer dan alleen even de foto horizontaal draaien.
Anyway, de kleuren en licht zijn echt prachtig. Ook het diepte perespectief is erg mooi. Zo'n hoog standpunt geeft niet weer een andere beeld.
Groeten,
Niek

Hi Hans,

The last rays are nicely captured on the billowing smoke from the factory in the distance. The factory itself is well highlighted by the reddish sunlight. Although this is an industrial setting, you've captured it in its best light. TFS

Best regards,
Werner

Love the sun reflecting off the steam cloud and factory.

Very busy photo with lots going on, depicts this area well. You must have been up high to get thes shot.

Bonsoir Hans,
Nice presentation on evening and the sun ray of Helsinki,
Beautiful composition and lovely details.
I love the sky with the beautiful clouds.
Picture very sharp and clear..
All my compliments
Michel

Hi Hans, I think that I may have preferred that you leave out the industrial part of the city as I find the architecture of Helsinki so beautiful. I do understand why you included it though. It is a part of the place. The boats some how give a calm and peaceful feel to the photo whilst the industrial area gives it another feel. I like the beautiful clouds and coloring of the sky. I hope to visit this place one day. :) Lisa

Hello Hans,

Excellent point of view of the industrial landscape, great light and wonderfull sky. Beautifull deph of field and sharpness, good perpective with the street and all that cars.
Have a good Week end.

Missed this one the other day Hans!
Great shot .. love the way that evening light hits the tops and sides of the buildings .. especially that factory on the right. The sun lights up that cloud of smoke and makes it look almost like an explosion. Lovely pink tinge of color in the sky too.
Nice one Hans.
ENjoy your weekend

Dit is een kwestie van mazzel,timing en geduld,hier ben je precies op het juiste moment op de goeie plek,en dan wordt zelfs een grote gore fabriek een ware sensatie.
Een mooie sfeer Hans,de schaarse momenten dat is de hele kick van het maken van fotoos.
