p.1 #1 · Edgartown Lighthouse in Evening Fog


I took my wife to Martha's Vineyard for our anniversary this last summer because she always wanted to go. We rented a Moped and rode around for two days. (I know the locals hate it, but it was easy to get around) I was able to take a good number of images that I finally just got around to processing.

This is the Edgartown Lighthouse which I shot 30 minutes after sunset but the fog was rolling in from Nantucket Sound so heavy, that this was a 3.2 second exposure at f/5 with no filters. C&C welcome.

Yep, I'm a local......well local to Cape Cod. I do agree that other than a jeep, moped are best way to get around on the Island.

How does this look in color? Color misty fog shots are nice.

Nice! I sure like this one. The conversion to a gritty/grainy B&W is really nice. It's really got a lot of mood.

Peter,

I just linked the original color file so you can see it too. I didn't know what to do with it so I converted it to B&W.

Jim,

Thank you, I like the B&W's grittyness too. I used Nik Silver Efex Pro for the conversion. It was my first try with the software. I might have been a little heavy handed with it but I liked it when I was done.

Thank you both for commenting.

I also like the gritty grain shown in the black n white. It gives a nice feel. How do you like the Silver Efex Pro software? I see it was just reviewed in Photoshop User.
