This is a little waterfall that leads into a small man made pond at the Osthoff Resort in Elkhart Lake Wisconsin. For you race fans this is about 3 miles from Road America. Shot just before dusk so the sky was still a nice shade of blue however dark enough for the lights to turn on but bright enough to add some sky blue colors to the waterfall. There is a little bridge over the top of the waterfall that has lights under it casting down on the water, (My Light Source) Also have some shadows in the water from a light to right of frame that passed through the railings on the side of the bridge.
Mounted on a tripod 30 second exposure using 10.5mm fisheye.
cropped auto adjusted contrast levels and colors, shadows and highlights, hue and saturations to tone down the red and yellow colors cast down from the light under the bridge as well as the other lights just behind the bridge. adjusted curves, resized, added border and saved. |
