This was an experiment and learning process...
It is actually, the moon...the clouds were very impressive.
It was one of my first ventures into night photography. However, it was extremely hard to capture what I was seeing. The moon either came out too bright. Or the clouds did not show.
I was slowly improving things but as night fell the fog moved in making everything blurry regardless.
Somethings I am contemplating for next time or curious about:
1. Would it actually have been a good idea to use a polarization lens. Usually, the thought is to use such in sunny conditions. But I am wondering if it would not have also been appropriate here?
2. Tri-pod, I think I've realized that night photography requires a tripod.
One advancement I did make was the exploration of "2nd Curtain" flash usage. I need some work on metering, etc. But you can see some experimentation work here.
I did not expect the to have scored well. The fact it wasn't the lowest rank photo was enough for me.
So I'd love for any of you to provide some advice on such night photography conditions. Particularly, with a bright object such as a full moon and a sky of moonlit clouds. |

took me a while to figure this one out. Nice. The necklace is not through the centre of the pearl so it will probably break soon :)

| Great idea. Too dark and softly focused to hold my interest. |

| Simply too far out of focus and poor exposure to score high. Very good concept for composition. |

| Not in focus, too dark, not very interesting. The tile does however fit the image. |

| This almost looks like Jupiter. I like the clouds, though I'm tempted to wish they were more in focus. |

| I can't really make out what this is, though it appears to be the sun in the sky with something crossing in front of it. Needs focus! |
