Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque (Explored)

wow, it's been a while since last I took some photograph. Finally had a chance to shoot a sunset although it's been raining all week long.

 

It's a bit awkward to go out and shoot some photograph, after almost 4 months away at sea.

 

I can't believe I left my tripod at home (the most important things for a landscape photographer, sigh). So, I returned back home and came back to the location, setting up the camera, attached the filter adapter, and only to found that I had not brought my filters with me!

 

Anyway, It's no big deal, there are plenty of ways to take a photograph :)

 

......................................

 

The photo were taken at the lakeside near the 'Iron Mosque' during sunset.

 

It's actually a vertorama shot, taken in order to get the building straight due to the lens distortion and to gain more space for the sky. Then, I cropped down to 4x6.

 

It consist of 6 exposure at f/16, ISO 100, manually blended with Luminosity Mask method in Photoshop CS6

 

2.5 secs | lighten up the shadow

1.3 secs | building detail, railing

0.6 secs | base layer

0.3 secs | other lead-in and contrast

1/6 secs | for the sky

1/13 secs | reduced the hi-light (Just a small portion)
