The magical hour of moonshine and sunset


Ok, I know... no focus, no foreground and no subject of interest, and what is this pole doing there! But for some reason I like this one very much...

Another shot from the Iper shooting at Álftanes :o)

You've say it... it's a kind of magic. I like the colours and the very clear sky with all the little stars!
One sentence from the song of Queen "Kind Of Magic":
"Its a kind of magic
One shaft of light that shows the way"

Absolutely gorgeous! :) Maybe the pole is actually a gun for shooting little balls of fire up and through the horns of Taurus The Bull... (Or maybe I'm just a little mad...!!) :D

Flott mynd af nánast engu :o) Fallega blár litur og líka sá gyllti og skilar sér vel kyrrðin sem var þarna. Mun flottara mótíf en guli kofinn sem ég var að rembast við að mynda :o)

Pixiepro replies:
Takk Oddur, þó svo að myndin sé af nánast engu þá er það einmitt himininn og kyrrðin sem að mér líkar sjálfri svo vel. Ég tók líka mynd af kofanum... kom hræðilega út :o)

Love that shot. A tiny step to the left to position the post right under the celestial light of the moon would have made it the absolute take. Even so the colors and the composition make it a very interesting image.

Pixiepro replies:
You're so right... but I didn't even notice the position of the pole and the moon until I uploaded it on the computer... sometimes I'm incredibly blind looking through the viewfinder! :D Thank you Mainzelmann :o)
