Technically taken the 19th of July here in Iceland or about 1 am the last day of submission. Went out by myself just over midnight as it was the only time I have had to shoot for this week and got in at about 2am, would never have gotten around to it had it not been for the WPL, have been WAY too busy lately. Was refreshing to be out that late by myself, really took my time with this shot.
Taken at 16mm with a polarizer and a tripod. Post processing was minimal, WB adjustment, contrast and saturation boost in raw conversion. Shadow/highlights and curves in photoshop and finally sharpened after resizing, added the frame after sharpening.

Great shot Larus! I can't believe how much daylight there is at 1am!!! heard about it, but couldn't believe it...I only gave this a 7 and I don't know why!!!
Great job! This photo would have been a little better had you removed teh telephone polls in the distance. It is very nice, with great movement in the sky, great use of color, and for creating a feeling that comes with being outside alone at night. The other thing that distracts from the overall beauty of this photo isin the middle right side of this photo extending to the center, it's hard to tell what those black outlines are. They appear to be rocks or seaweed, but they just look kinda 'blobby'. I gave this a 5 for meeting the challenge without leaving me to have to guess about how it fits the theme.
This is a beautiful shot..... i love the depth of this picture.......the pink/orange/yellow colors really bring the eyes all the way through the shot, and the blues are amazing and powerful. Great job. 9
Ég ætlaði einmitt að taka mynd á Gróttu en ég var úti á landi og hafði ekki tíma. Ég held þetta sé mun betri mynd heldur en ég hefði tekið. Notaðir þú ND grad filter eða eitthvað svipað?
It's overwhelmingly dark even for a nightfall shot imo. Also looks to be oversharpened perhaps. Otherwise nice. Maybe lose some of the darkness on the left and add more of the sunset on the right.
