Moonlit Seashore

Today I´d like to show you one of my husband´s photographs - to be honest - I think he´s a much more creative photographer than I am... unfortunately he doesn´t photograph too much.

Last year in Croatia we decided to do some night photography before dinner... we started to shoot in the Blue Hour and continued until it was really dark night.

The Croatian Coast near Split was so very beautiful with all that hundreds of lights!

I shot an overview image, which did not really satisfy me... but my husband had a much better approach: he zoomed in and captured the moonlight reflected by the sea so beautifully:

For comparison - this is my not very spectacular attempt to capture the scene:

Lightnings...

Another one of my "trial and error" shots:

 ... the next time I´ll set the focus to infinity, choose an aperture of about 8-11 and keep the shutter open for 15-30 seconds.... manual focussing didn´t work for me... anyway, it was a gorgeous experience and I´ll try to make it better next time! We never stop learning!

Have a nice day!
