The Shot
This is the DLR, Docklands Light Railway, platform at Bank Underground Station, London. The station is named after the Bank of England above ground but could not be more different. There is an especially clean, vibrant and futuristic look to the platform.
The picture was taken handheld with a Sony A700 with a Samyang fisheye lens at 8mm and f5.6. I took 3 pictures for HDR.
Processing was done in Photomatix using Detail Enhancer. This was followed by Topaz and adjustment layers in Photoshop. A motion blur tool was used in Topaz to add movement to the train. The image was cropped a little for better composition.

The Shot
This is another angle on the DLR, Docklands Light Railway, platform at Bank Underground Station, London. The station is named after the Bank of England above ground but could not be more different. There is an especially clean, vibrant and futuristic look to the platform.
The picture was taken handheld with a Sony A700 with a Samyang fisheye lens at 8mm and f5.6. I took 3 pictures for HDR. However in the end I used just the middle image to create the additional images as the difference in the movement of the train in the 3 images was too great
Processing was done in Photomatix using Detail Enhancer. This was followed by Topaz and adjustment layers in Photoshop.

The Shot
This is a shot I took on the Docklands Light Railway as the train was leaving Bank Underground Station, London and looking out of the back window. The railway is automatic, no driver except a supervisor who sits in one of the front passenger seats. This gives a great opportunity as there are passenger seats at the front and back of the train.
I used a shutter speed of 1/10 second for the movement
The picture was taken with a Sony A700 with a Sigma 10-20 wide angle zoom at 10mm. Taken handheld in RAW. The image was opened in Camera Raw and 2 additional images were created at +2EV and -2Ev for a “false HDR” with each image having Noiseware Pro applied. A Photoshop action I had saved was used to create the extra images automatically.

This view was taken on the Docklands Light Railway as the train was in the tunnel which takes it under the Thames. The railway is automatic, no driver except a supervisor who sits in one of the front passenger seats. This gives a great opportunity as there are passenger seats at the front and back of the train. I put the camera lens flat against the window to cut out reflections. This shot was taken from the back as the train was leaving the Island Gardens Station on the North Bank.
I took a lot of pictures and settled on a shutter speed of 0.8 seconds for the best feel of movement.
The picture was taken with a Sony A700 with a Sigma 10-20 wide angle zoom at 10mm. Taken handheld in RAW. The image was opened in Camera Raw and 2 additional images were created at =2EV and -2Ev for a âfalse HDRâ
Outputted in Photomatix to contast optimiser for a natural look for an HDR. Topaz adjust clarity setting was used. I also used Topaz deNoise and Topaz clean with masks to deal with low light noise in some areas. A selection was made with the pen tool for the selective colour of the yellow line. Mono conversion was done with a Photoshop adjustment layer.

This view was taken on the Docklands Light Railway as the train was in the tunnel which takes it out from Bank Station under the City. The railway is automatic, no driver except a supervisor who sits in one of the front passenger seats. This gives a great opportunity as there are passenger seats at the front and back of the train. I put the camera lens flat against the window to cut out reflections.
I used shutter priority and settled on a shutter speed of 0.7 seconds for the best feel of movement.
The picture was taken with a Sony A700 with a Sigma 10-20 wide angle zoom at 10mm. Taken handheld in RAW. The image was opened in Camera Raw and 2 additional images were created at +2EV and -2Ev for a false HDR. A Photoshop action I had saved was used to create the extra images automatically.
In general a lot of editing was done for this image to increase contrast and sharpness of lines and colours for a better effect.
