Early morning mood.

One of my favourite places again...

Shot taken in Kissena Park, Queens, New York.

As we were about to leave the lake one evening, I looked towards the horizon and saw the sun beams shining through the thick fog. It was a one time shot.

San Francisco's Pier 7. Taken on a foggy morning just before sunrise. This is looking back toward what should be the SF skyline. This is an HDR image with only very mild tone mapping used.

Nikon D300 and Nikon 18-200 lens.

When night is almost done and sunrise grows so near, light softly touches the tips of trees and lets us now it's here.

I went to the Sebastopol Lagoon, the smell was terrible. I wasn't able to stay for long. i almost threw up :P But the lighting was great and the water was so still.

Another stunning location on the South Island. The Doubtful Sound is less well known than the Milford Sound but you shouldn't miss it. It's far more quiet and tranquil, fewer (if no) boats and tourist and the views from the water are next to nothing. By Ron Vink, The Netherlands.

Nikon D200 w/ Nikon 18-200mm Tripod mounted f/16, 1/3 second ISO 100 shot in RAW Harris Lake is near Raleigh, North Carolina. It was below freezing that morning.

Taken from the peak of Uetliberg, a Swiss mountain plateau next to Zurich, using a Vixen Polarie, a device that helps to even out the rotation of the Earth. Exposure time was about 90 seconds at ISO 50.

Adobe Photoshop CS6, Camera RAW 7.
