Tonight I got set up with a tripod and the "good" camera, and got some shots of the garden lit only by moonlight and the glow of the lights indoors. The effect is kind of spooky and somehow serene to me, as if its a movie set with side lighting. I also utilized the flash for the graphic silhouette of the echeveria, and I managed to get a shot of a moonflower before it got too dark.

Very intriguing! Echeveria lit by camera's flash especially caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteGood to get your garden in different lighting - must have been a nice clear night with full moon. That moonflower is a great shot
ReplyDeleteWow, it's really neat to see the garden at night. It is mysterious.

Wow, you got some awesome photos there :D
ReplyDeleteDitto - great photos - the echeveria would be my favourite. I can picture it enlarged on a wall.
ReplyDeleteSo much fun to play with a camera! I've not had an SLR since I went digital. : ( Anyway, love those Eceveria and moonflower shots! They light up very nicely with the flash.
