What a great photo, think it is great and what a clever approach. When you say you 'stayed only 15 secs', presume that you mean that you then moved behind the camera. Did you move quickly and I can see no trace of your presence moving on the photo.

 

Thanks Tony,

 

   Sorry, I should have been more clear. I didn't move at all during the full 30 second exposure, I was able to trigger the shutter with a remote but my wife moved behind the camera after 15 seconds. She didn't move to quickly at all, that's one of the beautiful things with such a long exposure, the subject has to remain static for a while to show up.

I love our little "Marina"  :D

Guess you did not take this photograph in the last couple of days? Like the Scottish flag in the middle.

Theses are quite literally from where I live, one with my house in Spring (October) and the other taken from my deck overlooking Cook Strait.

October showers bring November flowers?

 

You Aussies seem to enjoy doing things upside down.  :D

I'll try, it's not too inspiring to take photographs of my area. I live in the Oil Fields and there's nothing but prairies with oil rings or shrubs and small trees. Unless u want to see a hawk on a fence post?

I would like some oil field pictures. I like everything as long as you make it interesting. Everything has potential, you just have to find it. And yes I would like to see a hawk too.

Ha Tony, erm no.  Not quite the weather we have had the last week or so.  That said i did take this one on Friday mid day (ish) just 20 miles down the coast from my original.  The temp almost got into double figs  :D

Here's another photo from my neck of the woods. This is a very old metal crab water fountain in front of the Vancouver Planetarium that froze over the other day...

Taken this past summer at a duck pond. I did get a bit creative with it though.

Not sure if this one qualifies as "beautiful", but I feel like I practically live here sometimes.

(rim-shot!)

I was waiting for that. Took a few days. :D

No, that's where I go to work part time in the evenings twice a week, after my full time day job.
