Moon shine…
Nikon D300, Nikkor 18-200, 65mm, f/5.6, 1/30sec, ISO200
You don’t buy that do you? I probably have about 20 versions of this image, and I have wanted to post one of them for a long time – well at least since I started this blog. Most of my versions are B/W with different levels of blurred back ground. Then the other day I was playing with this image again, I moved the temperature slider in LR3 by mistake instead of the Exposure slider, and I really liked what the blue cast did to the image, sort of like a moon beam hitting the rocks in the lake, so explored that a bit more from there, and this is what I came up with. I like this image a lot, and it’s probably one of those shots I going to make a 18×12 print of and hang in one of my bed rooms. I’m just not totally sure if I’m finished with it.
Your input and advice is always appreciated.
Very cool Jan! The cooler toning does give the image an otherworldly feel. When I first saw it, I thought you had shot it at night!

This really looks cool, Jan.
This is a great example of what can often happen when we experiment with the sliders on various effects. Sometimes there are pleasantly surprising results.

Fantastic shot Jan. I was just going through your other posts and was reading the one about the photo walk and then realized that you were in Ontario. Am I right? Me too. Are there ever any photo walks in the Toronto area?

Those rocks are definitely are the focal point in this moody image and I love their reflection in the foreground. Accidents create mystique; how cool is that!
