Exposure around 1 1/2 hours. f5.6 ISO 400. I was very lucky to

have a clear sky, at least for part of the night. I think the

purple hue is due to the sensia 400 film, What do you think?

 

I tried, unsuccesfully as you can see, to paint the trees with a

flash. Only a fence (lower right corner) received some of the

flash's light.

 

Thank you for viewing and if I'm lucky, your comments ;-)

 

Regards,

Roberto,

 

I like it. The bright lights bother me a little, especially the one larger lower left, but it's easily removed in PS if it bothers you.

 

Color cast could be atmospheric light dispersion from city lights with a little reciprocity shift.

 

Very nice.

 

cheers

Just a small suggestion. Instead of painting with a flash perhaps you could use a very strong flashlight like a portable spotlight or a vector light. I think the vector light uses something like 1.5 candle watts of power. It is only like $25.99 at costco. Other then that, good shot.

Thank you for your wise suggestion. Since I failed miserably to paint the trees, I will definetively be using your system ;-)).

 

Thank you.
