Bombay Hook Blue and Gold


 

BetterPhoto.com Editor's Pick   		Bombay Hook Blue and Gold
Bombay Hook Blue and Gold
I'd been shooting snow geese for hours on a November afternoon at the Bombay Hook Wildlife Refuge in Delaware when I happened to glance around and was stunned by the effect the lowering sun was having on the marsh behind me. It didn't last long, but the rich gold grasses and pure blue blending shades of sky and water were unforgettable. Provia 100 film, Sigma 28-135 lens, probably shot at F22, shutter speed not recorded, circular polarizer, on a Manfrotto tripod. Slide scanned into Photoshop Elements 1.0 with a Nikon Coolscan IV. Some Levels and Unsharp Mask corrections.

Gorgeous blues---and I love the gold that divides them. Beautiful, Judith!

Judith MacArthur's Gallery 		  Thanks so much for your kind words, Connie. I'm a new member so was especially delighted to have a reaction to my image. Coincidentally, in placing an entry in this month's "cat" theme, I spotted your wonderful "Washing Up" in a rushed glance at some entry thumbnails and intended to return to comment..which I have since done.

Stephen H. White 		  Nice use of color. I know this area well. My parents live in Middletown and I try to visit great Delaware locations such as this as often as I can. I only wish I could visit more often. I can't complain though. I live in Colorado. Once again, nice shot.
