Feeling Blue

Feeling Blue

The same aspect as ‘The Dell’ (see prior posting) but taken 25 minutes earlier (about half an hour before sun up).

Living on the other side of Port Phillip Bay, this was a 3:30am rise to get across to Clifton Springs for the shot. Unfortunately the skies were perfectly clear, and the sunrise ultimately rather bland, but such is the lot of the landscape photographer and we make do with whatever it is that nature might bestow upon us, kindly or otherwise.

This is a 64 second exposure at 24mm, f/18, ISO 100, taken with a Canon 5D.

    Not sure, I think I like this one the best, both great but the mood here with the blues is strong, the lighting across the horizon is good and the tree is nicely placed.

    Very nice work John. I particularly like the composition with the way my eye is drawn completely across the scene from the tree along the posts to the horizon. Awesome.
