Gold Rock

I tried an unusual take on an otherwise drab morning. Your comments

are much appreciated. Thanks.

it's nice to see somthing different, great idea.

Well compositionally it works, but it's quite difficult to interpret.. what is it doing there..? one would expect some cratering and steam for a hunk of space debris ;-)

Cheers Ian

So it's glowing red hot, which makes it a meteor or a cast-off bit of lava from a nearby erupting volcano?

My guess is that the rock has been lit by a flashlight or a handheld source of light, with a color temperature different than that of the ambient light. It's just a guess anyway, so I might be wrong. Whatever the technique, it led to a nice effect and rose some questions. Congratulations.

You got it, Eduard. This was a 30 second pre-dawn exposure, during which I ponited a flashlight on the rock and twirled it around its surface. Thanks for commenting!
