October Wallpaper / Moonlight Spot

Last week I was out with my buddies Dave and Manuel from Vistek who are also avid night photographers.  We were out trying to make the most out of the Harvest Moon and the unbelievably warm weather.  We went to Yoho National Park and captured some images from Emerald Lake and Takakkaw Falls near Field, BC.

Click on image and save the full sized image onto your computer.

In order to get the motion blur from the clouds I used a long exposure time of 12 minutes.  I like how the moonlight was spilling over the cloud cover illuminating just a portion of the mountain just like a spotlight would.  Because Halloween is in October I thought it would be fitting to process this image as a black & white photograph and get the eerie feeling of being alone in the dark.

Field Notes:

Nikon D800  / Nikon 16-35mm @ 16mm f4.0 / 12 minute exposure / ISO 400
