Its amazing what you see while driving home from a client meeting at 10pm. I had pulled over on the side of the road to take a phone call from my lovely wife who just wanted to know if I was on my way, and then told me to take care and travel safely. Looking out the passenger window of the car as I hung up the phone, this scene lay before me… I couldnt resist grabbing a camera and stepping out of the car. With the full moon low in the sky and the cold wind howling, it kind of had a Werewolf feel to it.
I know, its kinda weird… and I was in two minds about posting this one, but its just so different I couldn’t help myself.
Gateway in the moonlight
Those squiggly lines in the sky are actually stars… It was a 1.6 second exposure and like I said it was kind of cold and very windy… so keeping the camera steady was not really an option, but it fits the whole mood of the scene perfectly.
So there you have it and like I always say, please feel free to comment… Especially those of you viewing this via Facebook !!!
And for the Camera/foto geeks: -
