ten four

Wow!  In my mind, this image has so much going for it. A panoramic, low light shot of lights near water, classic. But, the doubles 'eyes' under the bridge and the extended perspective under the second bridge gives this shot something special. The barely visible bridge stonework frames the action packed still water giving a wonderful balance to the composition.

This was the last shot I got of the total eclipse, by the time I

relocated the dawn had broken and I could no longer see the

moon. Lucky to have clear sky. Had no tripod, I rested the camera

in my jacket on the roof of car,

...... funny

I quite like this shot. It is funny because my enjoyment of the work is tentative. I'm talking about my interpretation of how it might have been achieved. At first glance I read it as you have zoomed the lens while the shutter is open, I love it if that is what's happening. Then I thought 'may be it is a post production edit using a software filter'. In that case my enjoyment was diminished. So I have two emotions evoked by the exact same image, funny that.

is such a great photograph. One could spend a lot of time finding such a combination of perfect light, full range of colour and beautiful composition. Everything here is 'picture perfect'. Well done my friend.

... thanks John, I appreciate the comment.
