    The conditions for this are right about two evenings a year. Tough to get the lighting just right. No matter what you spot meter for — the sky, the water, the moon, or the mountains — something's going to be off. I ended up using matrix metering and dialing the EV down by 2/3 of a stop, but not after a lot of experimentation.

    You got me thinking Ali... don't have too much time lately, though I've managed to capture this one two weeks ago.

    @Golf007sd Thanks, living in a coast rainforest with plenty of rivers and small lakes is a blessing for sure! I'm hoping to get back to that lake in a few weeks when the fall colours peak! :)

    Discovered that a tripod is also good to use as a cane for when walking over water.

    @dissent, it is so much fun to see your airshow shots, they are great.

    I will post a couple old ones, every 2 year there is a show - Wings and Wheels - on Gilze airbase.
    You never see so many ferrari's, daimlers and antique cars together. Others on this forum like those too, I think :)

    O, this is 2003 and I made it with my first digital camera, the Porche design Fuji FinePix6800 ZOOM. Is'nt that fun?
