Long Exposure Cityscape Photography at Blue Hour

Photo of the Month (November 2024)

Photographed on 20 November 2024 at Shoushan LOVE Lookout (Kaohsiung, Taiwan). EXIF: 35mm, f/5.6, 30 secs, ISO 100.

“Photo of the Month” for November comes from my family’s first trip to Kaohsiung, Taiwan. To be honest, this isn’t a strong image, but since it was photographed during the trip, I’m sharing for a memory’s sake. 😅

Although it was sunny on this evening, Kaohsiung’s sky was always hazy, obscuring the skyline in the distance (I had to use “de-haze” tool in Photoshop quite a bit 😅). Besides, the skyline is in the East (the sun setting behind me shooting), which isn’t ideal, as the East sky won’t have beautiful twilight hues typically seen in the sun-setting side of the sky. Anyway, we have no control over where the sun sets, so just needed to make the best out of the given conditions. 😊

    Thanks! This is the only planned shot in Kaohsiung, so I’m happy that I’ve ticked the box. 😀
