Button Bay Sunset redo

Comment by Brad:
Much better crop.
See how the leading lines work for you in the sky as well as the water?
I'd still take just a bit more off the bottom now.

Originally posted by Brad: Is this on the East shore of Lake Champlain, north of Arnold Bay? Used to be called Button Mould Bay. Inset line is alternate crop, sharpened, dropped exposure -0.75EV Oh, and I know nothing about the the lake - never heard of it before. :)

yes, I live about 10 mins away by car, if I remember the correct backroads to take!

Bradley, thanks..I can try the crop, not sure about the specifics in exposure, haven't made the plunge to the Major $$ CS2 I have on my computer --old dog, new tricks, that sort of thing...

Moonlight images seem to have a shadowless quality that seems so serene. If you can view the shooting info, it is sometimes helpful to other photographers to include it with the images when you upload them. I am guessing that this was about 30 seconds at 400 iso, f 5.6 ?

um, actually f/6.3 @ 4s ISO 100.

Wow! This is beautiful. Love the way 'natural unfaked emotions' are captured. Pure emotions, pure heart, pure joy :)

Technically b/w is great choice.

With her arms bent up like that this is such an endearing image. Lovely shot.

wonderful scene, Annie - the FG flowers out of focus are a little distracting tho :)
