“水影 Water Reflection” / 夜之寧 Serenity at Night / SML.20130302.7D.24841.P1.L1.BW

Oh, the things you see under long exposure.

 

I was photographing the reflection of the lights of the 吐露港公路 Tolo Highway against the 吐露港 Tolo Harbour way across on the other side of the harbor where SML Universe HKG is at. But when I process it I noticed that there was a ship in the middle. I would not have seen it had it not been this shot.

 

The shot was mounted on a tripod and done in a delayed-time release to minimise vibration, so the blur is likely a result of the natural blur — it is on water after all.

 

A generous amount of S/H is applied in Photoshop to extract some details. I am thinking of getting a Holga because it seems like that toy camera is quite good at rendering these kinds of things.
