Photographing after dark.
So there I was, Saturday night in and there's nothing on the tellie, so I thought I know I'll go out and play at something I enjoy. These are the results. These trees are living happily in Lake Wakatipu at Glenorchy at the head of the lake. The shot of the group of trees had an exposure of 100 secs at f9 with an ISO of 3200. The lens was my 12-24mm Nikon set at 20mm. The lighting on the trees was courtesy of a single lamp on the wharf.
The first of two shots of the single tree was taken at 4 secs f16 ISO 3200 and the second one 15 secs at f13 with an ISO of 400. Because we had had a warm day the heat from the land was being drawn to the middle of the lake and creating a eerie mist, the 4 sec shot has picked up the mist whereas the 15 sec shot has blurred the mist. Lighting on the tree was courtesy of my car parked behind me and off to one side. If you would like to see these photos in a larger format you can on my Paradise Pictures Facebook page.
