And now for something really different

Glowing Blue


Again, taken at the planetarium. I'm not sure, but I like this one too. I know it's very different. I think it's the experimentalness (is that even a word?) of it. I'm not saying this is something I would want to blow up to poster size, frame and hang in my living room. But, there is something about it that is a little fun.
The picture from last night was taken with a very quick shutter speed and actually came out pretty dark. I had to do some work on it in Photoshop. Once I saw that the image was on the darker side on my camera, I quickly made some adjustments and took a few photos with a longer shutter speed. As some of you know, a longer shutter speed in a low light situation and a very dark room (not to mention the subject being a younger person) is a very tricky thing to get. So, perfection it is not. But fun nonetheless. And after all, it's about the journey isn't it?

And so on the end of this long holiday weekend, I am pleasantly surprised that it is an early an evening as it is for me. This means I should be able to get some reading in - Return of the Jedi here I come!
