Illuminations: Reflections of Earth

55 Seconds over what the flickr community has named Bergman Island in honor of famed photographer JeffB.

This was an experimental shot, i.e. going for a 55 second exposure, and am pretty pleased with it. Not perfect and look to improve upon.

This really does look better when you View On Black

    ND filter is definitely coming out on my next trip in May. This is killer, Matt. Wonder how long the ban from WDW would be if we could somehow make it over to Bergman Island to shoot Illuminations next time?

    A fantastic experiment! Turned out great!

    That's intense! This might be the best capture of this part of IllumiNations I've ever seen, well done! I think I'll have to swap my CP filter for my ND as well next time.
