The Water After Dark

I made it out last night to shoot some water scenes as the light fell behind the mountains.


I had an ND filter on to lengthen the exposure time and smooth the water out around the solid forms.


It's moonlight on the right, and some urban lights across the water on the left.

Great series Lena, I believe my wife's nieces were at the Festival too. They got me to go to Windsor for the past two years. Have you gone to the Albuquerque Festival? It is supposed to be the biggest and given the landscape in the area the most dramatic. Thanx for sharing your festival experience.

Hi Dan,thanks, Yes, it was interesting and fun experience of Reno Hot Air Balloons at Dawn Patrol Festival, I enjoyed a lot.
I went Albuquerque last year,it was a shooting birds, white sand, Sunrise and sunset trip. so we did not had time to see Hot Air Balloon Festival. The birds scene was amazing at Albuquerque, I suggest if you have times go to see it, The feeling is fantastic, I had great time at there...:-)

Warren, I took advantage of the nice weather Monday night to shoot the wreck of the Pt. Reyes. If you are interested, I will be heading up to Windsor on Saturday for the Hot Air Balloon Festival. The Dawn Patrol alights before sunrise and would qualify as shoot.

I like the foreground of this image with the folks ignoring the beauty of ND in the background

Ghent, Belgium at Night

Lumix G5, Lumix 20mm f1.7
Taken: June 2013

I thought I'd kick off this month's project with one from the archives. This is a night scene taken in Ghent, Belgium one year ago.

There's nothing fancy here in terms of technique, I handheld the camera while bracing the camera on a railing on the bridge that we were standing on.
