Love the lighting and colours in this shot and the softening of the water produced (presumably) by a longer exposure. Beautiful photo!
Christophe Testi, 7 months ago
Thanks for the kind words! That was actually a 13 seconds exposure, straight from the camera.

Gorgeous capture, Christopher! I love the softness created by the long exposure, and the twinkle lights.

Oh WOW! I know that’s not much of a comment but seriously!
Let me get specific – love the detail and the water effect. The picked out gold seems to be highlighted by the silken water effect.
Magic stuff – makes me want to come right over and check it out for myself.

Sensational exposure, with beautiful detail in the fountain, and the bridal veil effect is just superbly done.
