Moonlight - how it looks like in the dark

in #photography6 years ago

Night photography is one of the most difficult photography techniques, as it involves many factors:
You need to "feel" the environment surrounding you, taste the colors and know some of the technical operations in camera usage as well as a good enough camera (be it a Cellphone or a DSLR).

A month ago, half of the world were witnesses to one of the rarest phenomenas known as the Blue Moon. Blue moon occurs when the moon is full twice in the same month, moreover, it was a day after the supermoon phenomena

So, me and my friend Lena, decided to go to the sea where there is no artificial light and capture some of the phenomena, however, her phone died and she didn't wake up. Thus I ended up alone there (something around 3 o'clock AM)

The blue moon

Most of the night it was cloudy, however, hopefully it didn't rain that day. There were quite a lot of small waves, the landscape gave somewhat red-greenish color spectrum. One of the rocks gave a look of a lonely island.

Lonely island

The waves were smooth and small of it's size, but gave somewhat "smoky" view being captured for 30 seconds by the Nikon D7100

Smoky waves

The moonlight however, can be as shiny as the sun, only if you look from a different perspective

Is it sunlight or moonlight?
