The Beach

I'm running behind. This time of year is so very hectic. I have Baby Bear again on Wednesday night and The Hardware Store Christmas Party (some of my biggest donors for Baby Bear buy at the store my friend owns) that day, Book Club Christmas Party is on Thursday night and today was a shopping day. Tomorrow is for baking and wrapping gifts. I keep reminding myself that I am having fun! So, I am using a shot from last night - because I like it and because I haven't even seen my camera today......

Outstanding! Like a giant star has landed on earth. Where was this taken? And how do you manage to get everything completed? I'm very impressed.

[Carolyn White]

I love it, Cathy!!! This is so beautiful! Fav!

What a wonderful shot. I don't know how you capture shots like this--I AM SO IMPRESSED. Hope you are able to get everything done.

[Maggiemae]

Lovely last night shot! I do that too as the night shots are generally after I've already posted!

[Cathy Donohoue]

@allie912 It was taken from a parking lot of a fancy restaurant that overlooks downtown Cincinnati.

[Vicki Dixon]

[Abhijit]

super cool night shot

[elkehochban]

Stunning cityscape! Love the colours!

[Cathy Donohoue]

@worthitall Where will you be staying? I guess I think of a retreat being to less bustle. As a Presbyterian, we go to Montreat in NC. They do others but that is our biggest.

[Cathy Donohoue]

@yonnie Thanks. It is a pretty simple formula to start with and then you adjust the settings until you see what you want. The darker it gets the longer the exposure.

[Gerry]

very Stunning photo Cathy instant Fav what a awsome night scene

[🐓 Patricia Fletcher]

Superb cityscape Cathy! Good luck with all your hard work and preparations!

[Karen Mitchell]

This is a great perspective for these lights. Awesome.

[Alison Tomlin]

Anything goes when its Christmas! in any case this is fabulous and would be a shame not to post it.

[katy]

It is a beautiful night scene, Cathy!

[Judith Greenwood]

Beautiful shot - and we're all a bit frantic - I am doing a quick posting session and then I have UMPTEEN things I should be doing!

[Rashella]

@cdonohoue I hesitated in calling the weekend a "retreat" because of the location... downtown I believe lol but that is the going intent. I am a Children's Leader with Bible Study Fellowship and leaders from Midwest and East Coast will be diverging on your city to focus on "Eradicating Biblical Poverty" - hopefully a time of encouragement http://preview.bsfinternational.org/bsf-home
