Moon Lighting
Uploaded: December 20, 2002
It's about the light source....not my job :-) The only source of light in this photo is the incredibly bright moonlight! The lake was covered with a thin layer of ice and it was so quiet that you could hear it cracking all over the lake.

Thomas & Murry; This panorama was in fact made out of 3 photos & stitched together with Panorama Factory (The best stitcher I've found yet).
Jill; It was shot with a Sony DSC F707, f2.0 & 15 sec. exposure. I set the exposure for the brightest part of the scene and then kept it the same for all 3 shots which is why they blended so well.
Thanks again, everyone :-) #33515

A Must-winner IMO!!!! I don't know if you have ever seen "Chased by the light" by Jim Brandenburg. this is a photograph that would fit perfectly into that series. I am totally in awe, Gary, really!
