Brisbane after dark

[griffljg]

Of the 4 Griffiths siblings, numbers 2 and 3 have birthdays on 6th September and 8th September respectively. So numbers 1, 2 and 3, together with number 2's spouse, met up on the evening of 7th September for dinner in Brisbane's South Bank precinct. Afterwards, we all went for a stroll along the Clem Jones Promenade, across the newly-opened Neville Bonner pedestrian Bridge to the Casino and then on to Central Station via the Brisbane City Hall to catch the train home.

While we were walking, I managed to snap off some night shots, which I processed after I got home. All these images were processed by first passing the raw files through DxO PureRAW 4 for noise reduction and lens correction purposes, before importing the resulting DNG files into Capture One Pro for further editing / processing. Here are 3 of them:

Brisbane's newly-opened pedestrian-only Neville Bonner Bridge at night. - Taken from the Queen's Wharf (CBD) end with the lights of the South Bank precinct on the other side of the river.

Brisbane City Hall and Clock Tower

I had left the 7-14mm f/2.8 PRO at home and so had to revert to portrait mode. I didn't feel happy with trying a panoramic stitch late at night.

Great images. The pano worked, as far as I can see.

I made a bit of an oopsee there. - I have now substituted "panoramic" with "portrait".
