Your Monday Photo Shoot: Night Scenes
Night time is the right time for this week's photo shoot:
Your Monday Photo Shoot: Capture a striking scene at night. The content of the picture is your choice, but it should be at night, and if at all possible it should be a cool shot.
As for mine: I was up at about 2 am last night (I was doing some copy editing for my next novel, and it was due today -- yikes), and I looked out the window and saw my fog-filled front yard lit by the intensely bright full moon, and the light was further increased by the fog bouncing it around. Naturally, I had to go out and try to capture it. What you're seeing here is the result of a four second exposure without flash, plus a little post-shot fiddling with Photoshop. It's not way the scene looked to my eye, but I really like how it turned out nevertheless. It's always cool when one's front yard becomes someplace dark and mysterious.
Go out and snap your own groovy nighttime picture -- or if you have one in your files, haul it out and post it up on your Journal or Blog and then swing by here to leave a link so we can come see. Let's see what goes bump in the dark!

I'm using an older picture for this assignment because, well, this one is really cool! It was taken in April during our first cookout of the season.
