Tressesson Castle at moonlight

This is a manipulation from a photo taken by day in order to produce

a moonlight effect. Do you think it is succeed ?

I love the picture, even if manipulated. However to me it appears not to be a moonlight effect but rather the castle being lighted by an artifical (bright) light comming from the left.

 

Well done.. cr

very nice photo!

Le chateau de Tressesson est magnifique sous cet eclairage! Bravo

 

perfect exposure

Thank you all for your comments. You're right, David : I have made several versions with different adjustments of the "lighting" filter (name in french: "éclairage"). This one (the softer) was the more pleasant for my taste and I called it "moonlight". But I don't know if a real moonlight would give this sort of lighting.

votre photo est magique

ce coin de bretagne est magnifique

Henri, j'aime beaucoup cette photo meme avec la manipulation. Parcontre je ne suis pas convaincue que le chateau serait illumine par la lune (meme une sacree de grosse pleine lune! ;-) Le signe revelateur c'est que meme avec une pleine lune, le cote droit du chateau devrait etre completement dans l'ombre parce qu'il ne pourrait pas recevoir suffisamment d'illumination pour creer les reflets dans l'eau. En plus, la facade devrait etre plus sombre pour me convaincre. Tout a part, l'image me plait... mais vous avez bien demande si l'image etait convaincante :-)

Beautiful image!

Un travail formidable. Amitiés.

Très belle effect, même manipulé j'aime l'éclairage. Spectacular effect. Regards.

Fantastic light and reflections!!

very good colors for the castle!

This is much better Henri! It looks like there's an oversharppening... or is it just my monitor?

Hi Henry, you did a nice job here, and if such a job succeeds the basis is a good photo. As far as my understanding of french goes I agree with Margaret, but I must say that what counts for me is I like what you made.

Belle réussite !

Very beautiful, Henri....

beautiful image!

Thank you very much for all your comments and ratings. I do not thought that this photo would have such success. When I think that it has slept during years in my films folder and that I had throw away the paper print !...

Great effect... (brings back old memories to me, I was born few kms from there, in Coetquidan...). You succeeded in bringing here all the magical feelings of Broceliande forest...

Nice night shot, very natural. Visit my photosite and comment if you have the time. Alec

 

Très belles couleurs et bon contraste.

Stunning!!!

Man!!! This is the best....!! Amen to you...! My dream to take one like this...or atleast to see this.Great shot..in moonlight!!!It must be a very good camera(I just looked it up for Praktika) and you must be knowing what you are doing ....really well!!!

No, no ! Read what I say above : This is a manipulation from a photo taken by day in order to produce a moonlight effect. That's all.
