WOW, now you have youself a winner here, Linda! I really need to practice on landscapes. I'm okay with flowers and birds but when it comes to landscapes I need to learn from you. I set up my tripod at the beach this morning for a glorious sunrise, but wasn't happy with any of them. Anhyway I sure love seeing all your gorgeous landscape images! #7385208

Linda- Beautiful. So many things to love about this one. I love the golden colors of the bridge against the blue and black of the rest of the picture. Excellent pov and composition. Clarity and sharpness amazing. Three things in pariticular that I love are the reflection on the water, the way the lights twinkle like stars, and the special touch of the moon.
Exceptional work my friend.
Have a wonderful day, take care. #7386911
