Exposure settings: f/32, 0.4 sec (2/5), ISO 100, 165 mm
Description: I don't carry my 200mm around very often. In fact I almost forgot about the dusty thing. Fortunately it was in my new bag this evening when I saw this pretty unusual sky with this little church - which I shot from up close a couple of minutes before - making the scene complete. It was a pretty unusual evening as well, with the moon almost as bright as the sun at given moments revealing extraordinary light all over the place. Or would this this be the infamous Dutch Light phenomena where people - mostly Dutch - talk about, huhuh :-?
Anyway, it was a nice exercise for me again and I must admit it was fun too! For some reason my 200mm has always scared the kicks out of me, because I never really had any success using it in the past. Obviously, the only optics I've ever used were in the range from 12mm to 55mm for my landscape scenes. No doubt I'll now carry around the 200mm permantly as well!
Location: Onstwedde, Groningen, the Netherlands.
