Description

A 2-minute exposure taken almost an hour after sunset. I light-painted the grass with my headlamp. Mount Hood, Oregon, Trillium Lake, etc. Obviously nothing groundbreaking, just popped over here to try out the new D7000 and Nikkor 12-24mm f/4 combo.
Dark images are definitely best viewed on a dark background, so please click to view it in the lightbox. Or don't, that's fine! Whatever YOU want to do.
I really need to re-calibrate my monitor - I have no idea where the blacks/shadows are at on this, other than looking at the histogram. Crushed? Washed out?
Apparently this was #1 on Explore? Thanks for the screenshot, prakaz!
