Good attempt. However, if you don't mind I can give you some tips. Try to get the composition more natural next time. That road would be much better if it would come out straight from the frame instead of the bushes. With this adjust you would even lose that cables and no crop needed. Clouds are good, I am just confused with that white bulb (Is it moon, sun, or just dirt on lens?) The next thing is the horizon level. It would be much better if the level would be straight instead of descending. And according to the road. I would put on some ND filter and make a few long exposures with cars. You know classic tail light scene. Good, one. Keep posting mate!
Hello @wnfdiary!! Yours tips are more than welcome. I dont understand some things like horizon level or nd filters but I will google it. ;)
About the white bulb it is just the sun.
Thanks for you comment and your tips.
Hey @skywaystelios , you are most welcome. Horizont level: If you see the hills they are descending it would be better if you have the same level of the sky. So you just tilt the camera a bit and level it or in post-production. I recommend using a grid guide on the camera so you can level it easily. ND filter is just a dark glass that you fix on the end of the lens. So the next step is you need to adjust the Shutter Speed (Longer exposure) When you do this your cars have that long stripe of light. But hey, that is another piece of gear and if you don't make many long exposure shots you don't need it. Cheers
