Great shot Gary. Again! Love to scrutinize your submissions. I find them technically and artistically outstanding! Here's my most recent shot of the near full moon tonight just before it began to rain. 8 sec. exposure at f/2.8, custom white balance set to naturally filtered moonlight. Slight corrections in PS. #16094Gary H. Minish May 26, 2019
Lem, Thank you very much for the compliment..and thank you also for sharing your beautiful photo! This time of year in Alaska you don't have much opportunity to take photographs if you can't take them in low light, so I'm learning fast! In the process I'm finding some interesting effects (as you obviously are) that just aren't available in sunlight! That's good stuff you're doing...I hope you keep sharing it. #32939Cees F.

Greetings Gary!! I love your nightshot! It's nostalgic for me! I can't count all the evenings I spent sitting on my snowmachine looking at the stars. I can feel the cold in your image.Hi Lem!! Your moonglow is fantastic! It has a mystical quality to it that appeals to me! Nice work on this!! #32950
