Floating Harbour

DSC_0952_river_avon_medium

At least, I think that’s what this stretch of the River Avon is called.  I went out for drinks after work last night, I wasn’t really in the mood for it (haven’t been capable of socialising all week really) but I’m glad I went.  I got a bit more sociable as the evening went on – so thanks everyone who dragged me out, it was the distraction I didn’t know I needed.

The photo above is a bit blury, but it was shot hand held as a 0.5 second exposure (I’m not that happy with the contrasty look it’s got either – but it’s the best I can get out of the image in post).

I’ve never wandered around this bit of Bristol with a camera before.  I think I’m going to go back some time over the next month to try to bag a sunset (although I’ll take a tripod next time)

Edit: I took this as well, and it sort of works.

    I personally like the contrasty look of the harbour photo, but I often err on the side of overdoing the contrast.
    I haven’t been to that part of town either, so if you fancy some company next time you head that way, give me a shout :)
