Always take the vantage point for sceneries.
Always take the vantage point for sceneries that encompass the scene. Beyond that, you are free to go about getting down and dirty exploring up close and perhaps get some shots of street photography, documentaion and candid shots. Feel free to wonder around and enjoy the samples and admire how the alligator and a pigeon are in the same coo and are peacefully awaiting slaughter.
These days, when it comes travel and photography, simply living the experience isn't enough for people like me, or in my case, just me imposing on those around me. I feel the need to shoot from morning until morning for days on end. I make it a point to point my camera at every single distraction which can be caught on National Geographic and the Travel and Adventure channel. It isn't practical and a tremendeous pain and burden on the workflow, especially HDR in my case. Hence, instead of getting 300 rubbish repetitive shots of an area within 25 minutes...
Get to the highest point. In this case inside an enclosed mall, the center court.
Blast your camera (bracket) before security notices and bring the beat down on ya.
Take your time to allign and do another round of blasts.
Check the allignment, reallign, and do another 2-3 sets of blasts in that "money shot position/framing" just in case some dumb person just so happens to walk into an open area.
Leave to hunt for souvenirs and food producs because I'm an Asian Asian. =P
Go home happy.
In this case, I left the camera on a pillar to fire away hence not completely alligned. I did not attempt at any post processing cropping because I really like how the 2 red and blue sign boards gives a frame to the composition. Ghosting of pedestrians was intentional to show movement, though I could have done a better job at it. Taken around late afternoon after lunch with lots of clouds moving in and out.
Thanks to BB for giving me her time, instead of exploring, to put up with my "afternoon" attitude and babysitting me.
Stout out.
