Wow I am so jealous. I want to be where it's warm in April. This reminds me of all the good times I had in San Diego. Superb night shot and compo conveying the openness of the outdoors. Looks like your little girl has found herself a real hunk. Hope he is a good guy an you approve:}

Just a perfect mood.

Oh Gun this is so beautiful!! I love the fog! It adds such a fantastic atmosphere!!


cynlee posted Tue, 05 April 2005 at 10:57 PM

lovely golden light & fog Gun! yes... do try the monthly challenge this month... Night you can check it out at the link at the top of the page :]


gunsan posted Tue, 05 April 2005 at 11:03 PM

Thanks, yes the fog is the photographers friend. I went out that afternoon to follow the last sun of the year and got a nice series of shots.


gunsan posted Tue, 05 April 2005 at 11:07 PM

I will look it up and read Cyn, and maybe I can get something. Have to read the manual....hmmm...not my cup of tea.

YOU HAVE A POOL TOO???? Now i envy you even more...sigh...gorgeous shot by the way. Love that subtle light casted on the two of them. Great entry!!!! The second one was also beautiful!!!! And Gun....VACKERT!!!!

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?

the glow off the water in the first image is fantastic, like a jewel in the night. the second image has an amazing reflection and mood to it!!! very well done on both!!!

Couldn't get the flashlight on the dog eh.... ;-) I think Cocoa in the barn by lamplight might be a warm image..unless it's past her bedtime. That excellent portrait you did of her recently could almost be a night shot with it's indoor lighting effect. A pool huh.....must be nice......

Nice pic - great composition and use of the available light.

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.
