Aerial view of Capitol Hill (Seattle) at night, looking east from Pine and 9th.
  • Just curious, why is the quality only so-so? It's a very expensive 36 megapixel camera and lens on a tripod. To my eyes it looks very sharp without noise. The only technical defect I see is that the trees, swaying in the wind, get a bit blurred -- a trade off between car trails and noiseless ISO 100 versus sharp trees. And actually I did some post processing (it's an HDR photo from three exposures so that the roofs of the buildings aren't totally black and so that the lights aren't blown out), but I'm glad people don't notice it. Thanks! dllu (t,c) 21:59, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Sharpness is OK, motion blurr of traffic, trees isn't problem (not extensive). But if you check the sky there is posterization and banding with some quite big smudge (posterization) on the left. Congrats on camera. --Mile (talk) 07:21, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
