Night photography

Last night I decided to see if could get some different night shots.

I went down to the Lake, and there was a fog starting over the water.  This explains the white misting beyond the pier.  Unfortunately some folks turned on some flood lights which ruined any further photos from this location.

But just as the fog was getting heavier I took a photo upwards.   You can see how the floodlighting illuminated the growing fog.


I moved to a nearby dam which, to my surprise, had lights illuminating the dam walls.  This had an interesting effect on the fog.  I wanted to try and get a picture of car rear lights disappearing into the fog, and this was the best of the bunch because most of the time there was a car approaching which ruined the effect.


A zoomed-out view of the road over the dam.


From the same place I could see the Black Mountain communication tower, with the car traffic nearby illuminating the fog.



It was well below zero, so I decided to cut the evening short, but as I got to my car I caught this view looking over the zoo that seems to have been well lit.
