beautiful! i love the sense of serenity leading into something darker – brilliant!
Thanks again SFP, yes i like hte dark/light fading into each other as well. I must admit tho that was a bit of an accident, the naked eye didnt discern that to that extent before the shot was taken. Twlight is such an interesting light to shoot by. Only been doing it about a fortnight and I love the possibilities and the unseen colours that open up.

yes i know what you mean measuring the exposure can be fairly difficult for getting the balance of light and dark correct. i think with this photo the added darkness really works, the good thing about having 2 completely contrasting light sources creates endless opportunities to experiment with! great work again!
Beautiful!
Thank you.
