I always enjoy your Vlog's, Jim. Well, I enjoy them 97.6% of the time. Looking forward to the next one.

@JimNix 5 лет назад

Haha, I see what you did there Stephen. Thanks for watching. More videos soon!

Now I have found your photography tips. Great, great! Thank you very much. And I love Stevie Ray Vaughan as well as other troubadours like Willie Nelson, Ernest Tubbs or ZZ Top. Have a great day. And a cordial "Servus" from the south of Munich ;-)

Hi Adi and thanks for watching! I hope you got something out of it. Have a great day as well!

Nice shots. I am going to Nashville and then Pittsburgh in a few week to get these shots. Very excited about Pittsburgh skyline. I do mostly wildlife (birds), but looking forward to adding this to my photography.

@JimNix 5 лет назад

Hi Paul and thanks, hope your trips are excellent! I love to shoot skylines, and although I have never shot in Pittsburgh, I have seen some lovely shots of it. However, I have shot in Nashville a LOT and made a list of great spots to shoot on my blog right here: nomadicpursuits.com/top-photo-spots-in-nashville - hope it helps!

Nice one Jim, could you leave the stills on slightly longer. I’m viewing on iPad and when I paused the screen darkens so I can’t soak up the beauty of the shot. Go for the sequel now, show us the blue hour unedited image and give us a demo on how to process in Luminar. Also I like the way these are published just before lunchtime........ it gives me something decent to watch during my break without having to waste time trawling RU-vid!

@JimNix 5 лет назад

Hi Ken and thanks, I can look at leaving the stills on longer, just don't want to drag the video on for too long (if I have a lot of shots, for example). I may do some editing vids on some of these shots, will have to see. Thanks much for watching!

Amazing staggered building behind statue

@JimNix 5 лет назад

Yeah that's a new-ish one and it is pretty awesome. I need to go find some interesting perspectives on it. Thanks mate!

@gloucesterkiwi 5 лет назад

Another great vid, particularly like your composition (with the construction crane in the center background). You've given me some thoughts about shooting Gloucester quays in blue hour:-)

@JimNix 5 лет назад

Thanks for watching Alex and hope the tips help. I find blue hour to be the best time to shoot in a city, usually so much cool stuff to see. Have fun, and thanks!

@gloucesterkiwi 5 лет назад

Jim, how does auto focus handle blue hour, or do you focus manually?

@JimNix 5 лет назад

@@gloucesterkiwi my Sony autofocus works really well, except when it's incredibly dark. So I generally use AF and did use it for all of the shots in this video.Thanks!

@gloucesterkiwi 5 лет назад

@@JimNix Okay, thnx, lets see how my D500 AF works in the dark:-)

Hi Jim , is there a tip if you dont have a tripod ? Im using a 18-55 Kit Lens IS STM , andd i will be shooting Singapore skyline which is very wide .

@JimNix 4 года назад

For handheld shots, you will need to brace yourself against something for stability (lean against a tree, or lean on a railing if one exists), and make sure you pull your elbows into your sides for additional stability. Also bump up your ISO to allow for quick exposures. Hope that helps!
