Yellow

Posted by
Ian Bramham (Manchester, United Kingdom) on 27 April 2009 in Documentary & Street and Portfolio.

The yellow metal roller shutter of a loading bay in Chinatown, Manchester.

Colour, contrast and grain all pushed in post processing. Only the blur is untouched :-)

1/15 second in shutter priority mode and a quick swing of the camera did the trick....it's great to get away from the straightjacket of sharpness from time to time!

NIKON D40 1/15 second F/8.0 ISO 200 75 mm (35mm equiv.)
