Shot in the Dark

Description

We had a snowfall tonight so I opened the door, pointed the camera down towards the lamp, zoomed & took a shot. Slightly cropped & minimal contrast adjustment, otherwise as is. Took a liking to the shadows in the snow.lol

Hi Carol, our little camera performed real well for night time use! This shot makes me long for the first snowfall, I can actually feel the cold. You did well with exposure, not blowing out any bright areas and also giving detail in the shadowed areas, which are btw a nice graphic touch. #24140
