Late Arrival

Description

A tanker tying up to the berth and preparing to take on cargo at the Valdez Marine Terminal, Valdez, Alaska. This was taken just after midnight on June 08. I took great care to process the photo to reflect the ambient light levels as close to reality as possible. You can shoot photos all night in Alaska during June!

Exif: F Number: 6.3, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 10/16 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 160, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 34.90 mm, Model: DSC-R1
