Hello,

Nice photo of the blue hours. The contrast of color is working very well due to your good light management.
Moreover the composition is nice with the two elements put on each sides of the frame.

Yves.

Hi KARI
This is a special harbour photo.
The lighted light house is the main attraction.
Boats and flags also create a good setting.
Well done.
Peter.

Hello Kari
Well I note here a very good exposure lights management and a very nice point of view.
But I feel something missing here
I switched the lights on in my WS

Even before I opened this I knew it was Lindau, the exposure is perfect, and the two subjects are well balanced compositionally. It must have been windy with the flags open. On a personal note, I don't like Pf舅der mountain because I got an expensive parking violation there a few years ago (there was no indication of a parking fee or where to pay, and I was parked for only few minutes).

Terve Kari,
Color that reduced the blue has attracted my eye. The exposure at -1 also rendered beautifully the glowing part.
Have a nice weekend, Hisashi

Ah! We are properly into the blue hour now. Another good shot of the lighthouse; this time with a lion. A nicely balanced composition with good exposure.

Hello Kari! Hey hey ... this is really good with the two elements shining in the dark and the wonderful blue tone of the night that has not fully approached. You have discovered an intersting side of the Bodensee with this lighthouse. Excellent ... have a wonderful Sunday! Greetings from Unterwasser ... the sun shines! Barbara.

It gives a great dynamism at the tower against black sky. I like the composition.
Best wishes,

Kari,
an excellent blue hour image with a good balance between the so different ilumminated elements. The lion defying the tower or the tower keeping the lion in check?
