Over the River ...

2007.12.08






It almost looks as if a flash was used in these two shots. In reality, the 1st shot shows a very bright street lamp that lighted the foreground significantly. I actually cloned out the shadow from my tripod.


You will find the road to Christmas
Where your hopes and dreams come true,
And your heart will know the magic
That the season brings to you.

Continuing my fascination with night shots. I have been wanting to shoot this bridge for weeks now, in an attempt to capture it lit up for Christmas. Tonight was VERY chilly, so much so that I could barely get Heidi to leave the car!

At first, I wanted to ensure no traffic was in the shot, however the few times cars went by, I actually like them very much!

Estel In my opinion, 5 is the best. Although, I really like 6 too.

mybigbackyard Sooo beautiful - I would love to come across that bridge while driving! You've done a great job capturing it, and I do like the car lights - they add interest (as if that's necessary!).

photopoet This is some significant decorating job! You did a great job capturing the scene. I like the first photo best because it gives me a sense of the entire scene.

tbranscum Beautiful set! I love bridges like this! The only thing missing is the horse and sleigh!
tbranscum · 2007-12-10: 09:11
youlookmahvelous This is so cool! I especially like the 5th, and 6th, great scope and angle. I find photographing at night quite challenging especially lights. Nice job.
