Austria - Traunkirchen - Rainy Blue Hour on Traunsee Lake in Austrian Alps
This shot is such an unexpected result and a great proof that perseverance pays off. It was taken during very rainy evening with blue hour nearly finished. I noted this composition during the day and decided to give it a try while standing in heavy rain with umbrella above my head. I was really nicely surprised by this great result as the 500 ISO and f5 are sensitive enough to capture that faint light from nearby street that was slightly reflected on the boat the pier. The result is really unusual from what I see normally so I'm really pleased with it.
Camera Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II; Lens: 24.00 - 105.00 mm; Focal length: 28.00 mm; Aperture: 5.0; Exposure time: 32.0 s; ISO: 500
