August 2015 Photo Competition

[TheRainMaker]

Bit late in the month this one

Topic: Dusk to Dawn


GO........

This thread is for entries AND discussion


Rules:

The photos taken must be your own work
The competition will run from the first to the last day of the month.
The winner from the previous month decides on the topic for following month and judges it at the end of the month.

All entrants acknowledge that they may indeed win and that their adherence to convention ensures everyone else's continued fun.
Photos entered should be no bigger than 750 pixels wide for a landscape photo and 600 pixels high for a portrait photo due to the PH squash factor. Links to larger versions are permissible.

Great topic

Loads I could choose from but this is a personal favorite. Any togs out there who haven't been to Venice - do it, you'll be in heaven!

Thanks RM! Sorry I forgot to check this thread after entering - 20 minutes on the naughty step

New topic coming up shortly...

Great shot in Venice. Big stopper or similar (or little stopper even!), or just a long exposure?

Thanks If I recall correctly I think I used a Lee Grad pushed right down to act as an ND - it was fairly dark anyway so not much filtering needed to get the long exposure.
