Cool Blue of evening...
Cool Blue of evening...

A long exposure for 28 seconds at f22 at 6.32pm of a winter's evening when eerily I was alone at the lake. Though wrapped up well I was freezing. It was near pitch dark when I took the shot, but the long exposure caught the light that the naked eye otherwise can't fully see.

With a long exposure the winds push the clouds along to the point they almost disappear, likewise the movement of the water which fuses like cream. Only that which doesn't move remains visible - here it's the Sugar Loaf in the background.
