Photograph copyright: DAVID McMAHON As you can probably tell, I enjoy using my camera in severe low-light conditions, just as much as I enjoy using it in strong light. Each is a different discipline, forcing you to look differently at what you choose to frame in your viewfinder. This was taken a few days ago where the Monash Freeway runs beside the English elms that fringe the Yarra River. So many muted shades, so many joys to capture.

David- thanks so much for the quick update on my blog! I appreciate that. How exciting for you! How do you manage to post on your blog AND be in the midst of another novel?? A marvel it is to me=) I'm actually going to try and take some time off from blogging for a week...( if I can hold out.) I want to focus my energy more on my children's poems and reference publishing houses this week. If I got questions...I know who to ask =)
That photo is creepily fantastic. I love the trees against the sky.
I love this shot, David! What were the settings you used to get this?
I love the shot... LOVE it.
Just out of curiousity... do you post what you shot it at?
Yu seem to like fuzzy street lites alot!
Larst week we sor wun that a pigeon waz maykin lite up in the day. There iz a lite-sensitiv switch on the top so that they switch on wen it gets dark. Well, the pigeon waz puttin his tayle over it to mayke it go on an then he waz sittin down over the bulb bit to warm up his tummy.

Thank you so much David, for the specs... My sore spot (where photography is concerned) is low light pics... I'm working on that and appreciate your info :)
Thanks again :)
Now I do like this photo, it has an eerie sinister feel about it (or does that comment say more about me than the photo? - probably yes).
But the dark storm threatening sky counters the reddish glow at ground level.
Ahhh... one of my favorite times of day. =)
