NF-SOOC-2018 - Day 16: Chinon at Dusk

This is the view looking west along the River Vienne at Chinon at almost the end of the blue-hour,

This is for Day 16 of my annual NF-SOOC-September challenge: a month of sooc pictures taken with a 50mm lens or its equivalent for crop-sensor cameras. You can read all about it here - https://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/31977/nf-sooc-september-2018

Unsurprisingly, it's a BoB image ;-)

I agree with the others who have said it looks like its afire. Very dramatic night capture.

Dramatic and wonderful. Fav.

I can only echo others' comments about this image. Beautiful, and it looks like the city's on fire.

Nice layers of color and light and dark.

Wonderful colours and reflections. Like Marnie said, it does look like fire.

@koalagardens @taffy @golftragic @dibzgreasley Thank you all - this part of town is lit by sodium vapour lamps which reproduce as a sickly yellow colour so I underexposed by a stop to deepen the hue.

[Richard Sayer]

@domenicododaro It is rather amazing isn't it! In fact, if you zoom into the black mass of trees on the left you can see that there's a boat on the water in front of them... and still no noise!

[Domenico Dodaro]

@vignouse amazing indeed!

[Margo Sayer]

5* Towering Inferno! Exceptional.

[carol white]

Great colours, a lovely nighttime capture. Fav!! 😀

[Wendy]

An excellent shot - so beautiful with the calm water and reflections.
This also qualifies for the September words - night scenes!

[Naomi]

This is absolutely stunning
