The River Vienne at Chinon looking North

It was just coming to the end of the blue hour when I snapped this and the fading colours in the sky were more nuanced as a result. I'm learning not to be scared of high ISO settings - this was taken at ISO 6400.

View on black if you can - it's worth it.

It really works! My other camera would have had heaps of noise. Hope this is warm where you are as it is hard to tell when its dark!

I'll have to fav this but only because I can't find anything that I don't like.

Lovely light and shadows. I like the reflections on the water of the real and artifical lights. Beautiful.

This has it all: shade, light - natural and man-imposed. The sum of the parts is Atmosphere; I can feel it. Just splendid!
