Artistic capture!


Moon light and a slow shutter generally make for an artistic rendering.

The previous day there was an amazing colorful sunrise, and I didn't go anywhere to photograph it. :-(
So the next day I decided to drive to a remote section of Florida beach to avoid people and to try for a sunrise photo. I hit the road at 3:30 a.m. for the hour drive to my selected location. After parking at a location where I would not have my car towed or ticketed and started my 2.5 mile walk to the beach. The clouds were dark and thick and I had a sinking feeling I would not have a gorgeous sunrise with colorful clouds. When I arrived at my location there was no hint of a rising sun and the surf was crashing against the rocky shore line. As if on cue, the moon found a break in the thick clouds and lit the rocks just off shore. I managed 3 quick shots before the clouds once again blocked the moon light. The first shot was too dark, the second was interrupted by a wave spraying me, my tripod and camera (my camera was wearing its raincoat--I was not) and the third----well, you decide how well Luna touched the scene.

PLEASE USE THE DOWNLOAD AND VIEW ON A DARK BACKGROUND.

Thanks for looking.

This would look great printed on a transparent medium and laid on an aluminum sheet. It is an excellent rendering of a great capture and, as you said, is best viewed without any external light source. Plese stay well and keep on sharing.


That is an excellent idea. I struggle figuring out how to display this type of dark and moody image.

I appreciate the idea.

Thanks Walkabout. I spend my photographic life, looking for interesting light. For me light makes the image.

That is a wonderful shot. I never would have thought there were any rocky beaches in Florida. All I've ever seen is sand. Glad you found this very remote spot.


Thanks for looking. There are only a couple of places in the entire state that have rocky coastlines that are not man made breakwaters. And I've found them all :-)
