Op here.
Photo was taken last summer. I have a bad memory, I'll try to remember:
Pic was taken with a tripod. Don't have all the exposures stored, tho.
I wanted to catch at least the sunset on Lugano lake, as far as I remember, then they turned the city lights on. UV filter on.
From the exif of the raw:
> 9.05 pm> f/11> iso 100 >>3057291> 60 secI originally made this thread because I fall into the meme of "colours need to be edited in order to be real"
Dunno, in a certain sense it feels unnatural at the moment. This one was realised with two layers made from different exposures and cc over the original raw file.
If interested I'll dump the raw.
