Entering the Mersey under Moonlight
Yes Virginia there is a Mersey River in Tasmania too. Not as famous a waterway as the one in Liverpool, but still a transport hub for Tasmania. Everything I said about making the previous photograph applies here. If the motion blur of the ship was going to have an impact, the rest of the photograph had to be as sharp as possible. Catching the bow waves was essential, making a slightly higher ISO necessary.
[You definitely need to enlarge this one to see the golden moonlight reflections on the water.]
