Description
Please be kind, I decided to try my hand at nightime scenery and without a tripod (used a picnic table) This was taken directly across from the Kangaroo Island Lodge in American River (on Kangaroo Island, South Australia) in complete darkness with a full moon. (only postwork was noise filter and size reduction) I have one or two more of these to share and hope to find somewhere around here to get more practice with this because its fun :-) Thank you for your much appreciated comments! Have a wonderful day!

A dramatic shot. I find it lacks a bit of subject but the light on the water is lovely and pops right out. Nice capture.
I love your composition. Not only the light is fantastic but also the way you captured the clouds in a 3D effect is very special.
Amazing shot! I love it! PaxSV
actually, i think it's very nice!
this is a lovely night shot... the noise filter worked well.. I have a couple suggestions but nothing major.. Those two lights, I think I would have cloned them out and rotated the picture clock-wise.. Other than that.. great job!
Fantastic light and mood ... Thanks to the picnic table :=)
Well, I like it alot. I think you did a fantastic job at capturing the "moment" with no tripod. So whatcha' doing in the land down under? I've always wanted to go there. Great job Wendy. Can't wait to see the others. (My computers down so I have to visit a friend in order to get on. Will be fixed shortly though.)
This is indeed a fantastic night shot. Outstanding mood, looks wonderful!!!
syoer looking night shot
Wonderful shot there, love the light against the darkness...Cath
This has worked out brilliantly - well done to you for making use of whats available. Good exposure and amazing reflection in the water :)
Awww, Wendy. So beautiful!! Good on you :-) Heavenly mood, love this silver shining on the water.... Hugs. Di.
Cool night shot!!! I love the sky! I agree with Nicole Faber about the rotation. IMHO of course. Bravo!!!
straight to favorites even before I commented. this is an experience that is exciting and should grace the cover of National Geographic
WOW in capitals, first time night shot and PERFECT. Nicely done.
Ohhhhh you did GREAT ... picnic tables work great don't they :))) I have yet to try something like this ... Hope to take one just as nice as this one some day ... (or nite ... whatever) lol
Outstanding that you captured this fantastic photo without a tripod. Excellent work and lovely night scene. Looking forward to more. Thanks and HUGS!!!
It looks like it was very still when you shot this. Lovely glassy water. The clouds are full of interest. Very nice!!
Hi Wendy ! I don't agree with those suggesting a rotation or another centring or little lights to rub out.. Your shot is natural, and got splendid melted colors giving romantic and quiet atmosphere. Love it !! Great work q:) Magali

So beautiful this sky and it is so well captured !
