San Francisco Coast Guard Pier
Photo: Coast Guard Pier, San Francisco, CaliforniaWhen there is an image that has a strong center of attention, I find that it can be beneficial to add some vignetting around the edges to help draw the eyes toward that subject instead of drifting off to the corners of the frame. In this particular image, I have a foggy sky that isn't as interesting as the main subject matter so in order to de-emphasize the sky, I added a bit of vignetting. I used the PTLens software to accomplish this but I'm sure there are other simple ways of accomplishing this effect as well.

Thanks Ankush.
I would love to be able to photograph the west coast sometime, what is your favorite place on the coast to shoot Richard?
Thanks Bernie that's actually a good idea for my next blog post. I'll do a little summary on the different coastal regions and why I think they are interesting.
Great shot. I like the perspective and layering of subjects you have in this photo. Great stock photo.
