This week’s shot of the week is a throw-back, as weather and time were not exceedingly cooperative this week.
It’s not a frequent occurrence for me to do night photography, even though it is something that I enjoy, as it’s a thinking photographer’s game. This shot is from December 2014, when Nubble Light on Cape Neddick, ME, was decorated with lights for the holiday season.
From a position, low on the rocks, I noticed that I could get a nice long reflection of the light on the island, including some on the rocks that were moist from the surf. In case you wonder, the ocean was flat, as this is a side effect of very long exposures.
Hope you enjoy!
Technical Details
This image was captured with my Canon EOS 5D Mk III using an EF 17-40mm f/4L lens. Exposure settings were at f/18, 100 ISO and 2.5 minutes of open shutter (yes, a full 130 seconds).
