The pool at the Sheraton, Benidorm, Spain. 8 seconds exposure, ISO 100, f/8.
I'm very pleased with the exposure, (though I think the colour can be tweaked when I get a chance to process this in RAW), but I'm not quite sure about the verticals...

Re: Wish you were here!
Eeee by gum! The Sheraton no less Ian! Larney fella you! I like the pic but agree that tweaking would improve pic even more! Shadows perhaps & saturation!Jocelyn -
Re: Wish you were here!
As Dennis guessed, us journos weren't paying - in fact we were staying in the slightly less spectacular Westin section of the complex. anyway.
The saturation is not great because you are viewing it on-screen via a Web browser. It looks better in Photoshop, but the blues are suffering from the warmth of the artificial lighting, I feel. I will return to this as soon as I can process E-510 RAW files in PS.

Re: Wish you were here!
Inprove it?
If I had taken it I would be one very happy photographer, But I suppose that is the difference between experience, and amateurs like me. The verticles look ok to me to. An excellent night shot.Catch Ya Later

A beautifully lit photograph. The bluey green reflection on the right is appealing to me and has a quiet feel, whilst the left hand side is darker yet looks as though there is activity. I like the sweeping lines of the pool steps which take my eye up then across to the castellated doorway. I can see the verticals at odds too but wouldn't know how to go about altering it. I think it is the reflections of the buildings which seem out, but perhaps that is because of the water? It's a photograph which I do like though.

Re: Wish you were here!
Looks a 'cracker' to me ..... I love shots like this one
Maybe slightly 'off balance' with the height all one side, but I'd still be happy with it
Canon 7D, Canon 40D, + lots of bits

Re: Wish you were here!
The first thing I noticed was the verticals. Its falling over to the right - common occurance with me when I press too hard on the shutter release. I would have used the straightening tool on one of the central verticals first and then if necessary after that done a image transformation job on the perspective. But the rest of it I really like as is - gives a great impression of luxury and would have made an excellent shot for the night shots assignment."My own suspicion is that the universe is not only stranger than we suppose, but stranger than we can suppose."

Re: Wish you were here!
Hi Ian,
I love the colours but I'd certainly be trying to correct the lean to the right.
