Vernes, No. 1 and no. 2 are my favorite. No. 1 is very clean and the clouds look like cotton candy. Sunrise? You didn't lose the building details in no. 2 and you didn't seem to have any problems with blooming. Question: was the sky blue in the night shots? Very well done!

Cheers,
Norman

wow great shots.. you shot this in makati city hall?

one question to all: how do you seek access to be on a rooftop / ideal prime floor to do city scapes?
- do you submit a letter of intent that you wish to use their rooftop
- just ask permissions from the manong guards to have access on top
- or you really just have access to these floors

i'd love to have the opportunity to capture some skyline as well
TIA :D

thank you Norman :)

those were shot between 5:30pm to 6:30pm. the sky was still a bit blue. i just overexposed by 1 stop to make the sky bluer :)

Thanks for sharing the Makati area vernes. I used to work on that place and miss the working life there esp. at nite.

Is the Rufino tower still the tallest building in Makati?

@vernes

I like that 1st pic... :) Nice rin the 3rd shot, but kinda distracting the light in the middle of the lower part.
