Cityscapes (2)

Thanks for the comments Sashi and Fred.

And Sashi, I checked and in Lightroom Highlights are at -81 (so near max).
So the only way to bring out the sky and clouds more is with a gradual filter, but then the tower gets a lot of processing as well and gets too dark. Masking that out probably takes more PP skills and time. I'll take a look and see what I can achieve because I agree with you the sky is a bit bland at the moment.

I like it, Pieter.
If you're so inclined, might I suggest toning down on the hightlights? That'll really bring out the sky and clouds.

We're all still isolating, but I had to get out for a bit!

I made this one with my relatively new Ricoh GR III. It is a bit of a strange camera. The AF is nowhere close to my Sony A6400 or even A7r2 and i think I prefer the hold of the GR II over the III, but in actual use, it really does what it is supposed to do: easy to use for street photography. AF is quick enough for street. And the lens seems sharp. Haven't used it enough yet, still early days, but impressed until now. A picture from the city of Utrecht:

Like that one very much, Pieter! A perfect shot for me!
