You're all far overestimating the role I'm playing in all this. 90 percent of it is living near the right places and being there when the light is good. Yes, there is good and bad light at night. The time around full moon, like tonight, is always good. Combine it with a few low hanging fluffy clouds to give the sky more depth and you already have one half of a good shot. Far less wizardry involved than you all think. > I'd really like to see is what Ralf could do at night with a 645D So would I. :-) > and that if Pentax were smart, they'd loan Ralf a 645D for a few weeks, > just to see what one could do for night time landscapes. Anyone at Pentax reading this...? Though I'm currently quite happy with the K-5. Been spending whole evenings finding out just how far one can push things in Lightroom without producing any noticeable of noise. Incredible, absolutely incredible... As to your shot, I honestly don't see how I could have done any better, especially since such simple nature shots are far more demanding than my industry scenes which are quite spectacular just by their subjects.
