<br />
Sunday night I was in the ferry line-up waiting for the ferry from Mayne Island back to Vancouver.  It was raining and I noticed one ferry coming into the dock and starting to unload its cars onto the island, while the other one was waiting beside it to take us off the island.  The windshield was covered with rain drops and so I started to play with my D810 to try to capture some of the lights and reflections.  For this photo I set the camera on aperture priority, f16 and braced the camera on the steering wheel of my car to steady it. The raindrops on the windscreen resulted in a foreground bokeh and the ferry and cars were sharp, which was the effect I was trying to get.  The image is as shot with no filters or other manipulations.<br />
<br />
You can see cars unloading in the background from the ferry on the left, and one or two people inside the upper deck of the ferry.  You can also see the backs of the cars in front of me, waiting to load onto the ferry on the right.  As a bonus, at the far left middle you can see a the lights of another ferry out in Trincomali Channel, just coming into view.<br />

  • Happy New Year!  Coloured lights with camera motion #1<br />
<br />
Happy New Year to all my SmugMug colleagues and many, many thanks to each and everyone for your comments and posts during 2014!<br />
<br />
The photo was taken using camera motion on the coloured lights and their reflections in the Japanese garden on a rainy night, and did not involved the use of digital filters.<br />
