Pandemic Day # (I’ve Lost Count)
Time for another nap.
If Florida Would Fall
Sometimes the image is just not something that pops, until you play with it a bit. Lots of Nik 3 by DXO Color Effects Pro stuff going on. Detail Extractor, Pro Contrast, Polaroid Transfer, Indian Summer, and Foliage filters one on top of the other. If Fall would really come to Florida and stay more than a few hours.
Moon
And not that far from Saturn was the Moon that night. I captured this image expecting the next few days to be less than clear sky’s as the Hurricane/Tropical Storm Isaias strolls leisurely up the east coast. Of course last night was still clear but the almost full moon was between Jupiter and Saturn when I looked about 11pm. Now the clouds and wind have arrived but no where near hurricane force.
Saturn
The other night I was out shooting images of the moon which was near to Jupiter and Saturn. I pointed my camera at Saturn not sure if I would get an image or not. I left the exposure set for the moon shot and aimed (as best I could) in the direction of the ringed planet. Wasn’t expecting much and was 3 plus stops underexposed but here is a fairly tight crop that shows Saturn and it’s magnificent rings. It’s always there, it’s just nice to see it. Image was taken hand held with my Fujifilm X-T2 and XF 100-400mm telephoto with 1.4. extender.
