Calm full moon night, took these pics at the boundary of my backyard between 10.40 and 10.50pm. 60 sec exposure.

Very nice, love the stillness of the water. Slightly underexposed perhaps? With a little bit more light you get a kinda-like-daylight-but-not-really look. I say this from no experience of taking moonlit shots though! :eh:

- just having seen other people's work on tinterweb.

And to further exercise my own hypocrisy, here's an under-exposed long exposure I took yesterday morning

[Edit - yes, I know you can see the ND filter in the upper corners, forgot to shop them out...]

My camera's shutter speed only goes to a max of 60secs. The aperture was set at f 2.8

I like your pic with the water looking rather silky

Tomahawk ( AKA Ocean Grove) a semi rural suburb of Dunedin on the South - East part of the Otago Peninsula. Happy to report that there was no destructive tsunamis today

Christchurch had a pretty nice start to the day with nice views out to the Kaikouras.

I played around with lighting set-up with sefl-portaits today as the sun went down, took me a while though to remember my pocketwizards only sync to 1/200s so I was moving my flash all over the place trying to figure out why my RH side was always dark! Finally clicked that my shutter speed was at 1/500s and it was the shutter curtain itself blocking the light, no matter where the flash was set up :blush:

Anyway heres the result with the shutter speed brought back to where it should be, the suns just going down behind the tree in the background to give some backlight with my flash set up camera right and fairly close to me, just below the height of the camera.

It's my favourite T-Shirt

Never owned a single Sunday part but I like the colour :blush:

Pocket wizards are great, I bought mine over some of the cheaper triggers because its a whole system you're buying in to with possibilities down the line for multiple TTL flashes, remote cameras and so on. The new version solves my problem of faster syncs speeds too!
