Description

...okay so it wasnt really a blue moon, but I liked the backlighting on this native florida vine (Smilax spp) right after a night rain storm...and I liked the blue tones...

...croppingi of bottom and top, hue adjustment of minus 3... ...post script...between my love of capturing existing low light and chasing storms...it appears that I may never again get any sleep ::smiles::

The incadescent glow you captured here is just stunning, Robert, beautifully composed and presented in that elongated format as the eye follows along that delicate curve! #1269004

Robert - sorry that I have missed this until now. There was a problem with BP last night and I signed off in frustration.
Anyhow - I just wanted to say that this is honestly one of the most outstanding submits I have seen in a very long while. I not only love the unique idea you have captured but I love the blue hue you've used too.
Very well done - BTW - I am lovin' this new macro series of yours!
