Description Taken in the oriental part of lisbon...I really like the architecture of this structure.

This was a one shot only because after i setted up my tripod and the general settings ( metering, w/b etc.. ), the security guard started walking my way...He had already saw me shooting the opposite direction before, so i only had time to quickly set the aperture and shutter speed, compse the best i could...and click.
Curiously, he didn't know why i couldn't shoot there, he stuck to say "You can't just because!", wich is a bit sad...prooves his boss must really be an asshole and didnt at least bothered to explain him why. lol

So i'm not enterily happy with this because i had to cropp a little from the lower third. If i have had the time to compose properly i could've used that un-used space to get a little more ceiling...But those guards haven't seen the last of me!!

Ficou muito boa mesmo assim!
Tirada mesmo ao meio parece mesmo um interior de uma nave! Gostei bastante do enkuadramento mas realmente com um bocadinho mais de tecto tinha ficado melhor!

WOW! This is a great shot and it certainly does look other worldly. I see that you have asked for an Advanced Critique but sadly all I can do is sit and stare.

As to security guards I had one of those run ins not an hour ago. At least she was nice and took me to the boss to get permissions. He sad no but I got 17 shots that I have yet to look at before she showed up.

20 years ago you could shoot almost any where. I guess those days are gone for the most part.

Wishing you well,

Barry

Thanks Barry

I honestly aprecciate that you take a good look at it, it's enough for me to be happy!!

You were lucky he didn't asked you to see your camera and erase your card ( seriously, i've been asked to do that inside a stadium )! Your not the first one to say that about years ago you being able to shoot anywhere, but in some part i even understand it, considering how things generate profit easily nowadays and all the copyright frenzy and stuff...i guess i'll have alot of "furtive photography" in my future.

tell me about stupid security guards boy. i myself got thrown out a couple of buildings before as well. lol!

great shot considering the circumstances you were under. excellent exposure and focusing i must say. the entire picture looks surreal to me. good job in lining up the entire frame, placing the camera in the middle.

okie. now, i can go over and

Gotta love those shots on the run! You did an excellent job capturing this under such pressured conditions. The lighting/exposure is reall y good and the composition is dead on for giving you the modern feel of the corridor.

NICE!
