Nice sky and leading lines of the road. Could be better lighting of the ground.

I suppose - bad time of the day to shoot this landscape - shadow is covering all the beauty.

Busiest day in a Calm city

Hi everyone. Thank you for high scores given to my shot and let me comment my photo. Having in mind that All Saints day is a local Lithuanian (catholic) tradition, I expected people will not understand a reason of this massive cemetery lighting and idea of business. So 31st place is really rewarding for me. You know, instead of Halloween, we have a tradition of specifically celebrating All Saints day (November 1st). It is a public holiday, a day when all lithuanians are visiting cemeteries and lighting a candle on their relatives and friends graves and stay a minute by the grave thus recalling what was precious in their relationship. OK, not so funny as Halloween, but its good for keeping and refreshing of what is really important in our lives - relations between people. Now you can imagine how busy are our cemeteries (and roads, and people) that day. And you see what interesting lighting comes out in the evening. Personally me - I visited three cemeteries throughout Lithuania and was on my wheels almost all the day. Meeting relatives that are still alive and remembering those that already gone. Believe me, it's a deeply worthfull tradition that goes from one generation to another.

Re. level of horizon. Yes, the cemetary goes downhill and that up, shot was made from hill, otherwise we could not see candles through head stones (they are quite big in Lithuania). And yes, it looks like improper leveling. I tried to fix it - it looks much better then, so all you commenting on that issue are right. Thank you.

Re. post post note: thank you for explanation. You managed to set up serious water drop research lab with laser drop sensors and all that stuff that usualy makes a lab lab :) The more I shoot the more I am convinced - good photo rarely comes out effortless...

Originally posted by DrAchoo: Great capture. This is a top 5 if not a ribbon. I'm guessing this took some nice equipment because you are using a) macro b) have a nice thick depth of field and c) froze the motion very well. Hmmm, now that I think about it, I don't think this actually is what we are meant to think it is. The two tiny drops on the large globe I think give it away. Also, in my experience of shots like this, the drop is too big compared to the column. Still a great imitation. 10

So - is it real or imitation? I also suspect those two tiny bubles inside. Long exposure also tell us a different story. Anyway, it does not make a photo less interesting.

Beautiful landscape. Is it really a dead end? Seems like the road goes down the hill...7
