Title: Light Pollution
Post by: Ari N on December 23, 2010, 03:51:48 pm

This is a dark evening shot, lights are urban lights, reflected from fog clouds!


...And Merry Christmas and happy new year to everybody here !

Merry Christmas to you too, Ari. And that's a marvelous shot. Not many people would have seen it.

That's a rather astounding image. Is this a straight shot or have you manipulated it in Photoshop?

This shot is almost straight from the camera, only adjusting white balance, and add a little saturation and contrast...

...And actually this place is the border between city and the nature preservation area... in  left, there is only nature lights (no street lights at all), and in right there is the whole city....
