Silky Silence

Sunset on the smooth and calm waters of the St-Lawrence river, shot from the south shore, in Candiac, Quebec. I shot at f/8, to emphasize the misty quality of the background.

Post-processing was limited to a little rotation and very slight levels adjustments. I also cloned out a speckle of dust that must have been stuck to my lens.

Focal length 55mm
ISO-100
Aperture f/8
Shutter 1/5 sec.

Nikon D60
AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f3.5-5.6G VR
