Juan and I pass this location ALMOST every time we go somewhere. This is pretty close to our home.. (we have water all around us).
>>I just LOVE this location. The reflections, the sunrises and sunsets.. the birds.. the calm water .. or the choppy water... It's ALL GORGEOUS!! This location is literally, always beautiful.
For one of my future images, I plan on going here at night.. and I will be taking almost this SAME photo.. in the dark. Across the river there at one of the homes.. The family has put up lights in the shape of a cross on the lake.. and every single night you see a large cross lit up on the lake.. It's AMAZING & sooo beautiful.
...So recently I have been thinking about trying some night images... with minimal light. *Really just focusing on the little bit of light/shadows/silhouettes etc.
>>Do any of you have any recommendations?? Like, how should I set up my camera settings for NIGHT photos?? *I have never tried it.. and I am looking forward to learning new things and trying new techniques with photography. So ANY tips and advice would be GREATLY appreciated!!

ALSO, I want to first THANK YOU ALL for all of the wonderful comments/ favorites/ friendships & for helping my photos to make it to Explore *big smiles*.
>>If you haven't heard from me in a while, I apologize.. I am trying to catch up and return as many comments as possible..
*It's a little overwhelming. & that is NOT asking for you to stop.. PLEASE DON'T!! * I love , read and appreciate each and every single one of your comments! THANK YOU!
But, just know.. I received your comment.. and appreciate it very much.
I am extremely grateful for the amazing friendships that I have made thru Flickr. And I look forward to hearing from you all!
Thank you all SO MUCH for all of your love and support.
& I plan on continuing to post on here.. forever lol! :)
Hope that you all have a beautiful day. I'm going to try to return some of your comments & then relax.. I just got out of physical therapy.. and I'm a little achy. :)
Also I found a lump on the back of my neck today.. while at PT. & It doesn't hurt but it's pretty swollen. I'm not sure what to make of it.. But it does worry me a little bit. So if you could, please just say a quick prayer *hoping that it's just a muscle and nothing serious*. If it doesn't go away.. or gets bigger.. I will go straight to the doctor. I'm just hoping it's just a muscle.. because it's right over the spot in my back where I've been having issues.. *but yeah, it's going to be really worrying me until I find out what it could be. (never had something like this before). Like, I KINDA wish it DID hurt - so then I would know that it's a muscle. I know you guys are really great with the prayer chain thing.. (My aunt is home from the hospital now, *so happy* thank you all so much again for the prayers.) So please, just say a quick one.. that it's NOTHING & it goes away. I appreciate it.. a lot.
Hope you guys like my photo!
