[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Still traveling on the ship with Anders this photo was taken while sailing by the city of Detroit ,Michigan. I tell you its a challange to get a photo while on a moving ship, not just moving forward but with a little bounce now and again! I sharpened this image up a bit, added a small border to the top and blurred some of the hard edges.

Hi Donna,
I haven't seen you for a longer time now - nice to meet you again. Your shot is interesting and also beautiful - and I counted 8 cranes ;-) Thanks for the shot, greetings

Hi Donna,
the silhouettes are nice and crisp.
The warm backlight adds a lovely touch :-)
Best regards, Daniel

Hi Donna
What a brilliant sky and skyline. Nicely captured, seeing all the edifices pointing to the heavens.
Trouble on a moving ship - you may have to look into getting a lens with Image Stabilisers. This has come our really good though.
Cheers
Janice

You did well with this Donna! Despite the shakey ship, you got a nice sharp shot, a little pixelization around the buildings, but nice exposure on that ultimate OE, the sun!

Hi Donna,

Perfect moment to get this composition . . Need patience to wait to capture it . .

Hi Donna,
Great shot with those silhouettes standing out perfect! Great contrast, well use of low light. All the cranes makes this view extra dramatic. Well seen and captured.

HI Donna
The details of the cranes is great, and to capture such a round sun without flares is to be congratulated.

Hi Donna
beautiful silhouet picture.

I like this, Donna. Interesting choice of context of a sunset, with those twin spires. Even with the derricks, it gives this slice of Detroit a semi-medieval feel.

Keep 'em coming!
