Everything Looks Different at Night - Day 31

"Daylight" at Dusk - Moon Through Trees    

Time Exposure of the Moon Through Trees    

- turns the evening into "daylight."    

A 20 second time exposure with low ISO and medium f-stop delivers enough light to the camera sensor to make dusk appear to be daylight, and turns the moon into a softly glowing sun.

Labrador Tent     

Setting Up a Labrador Tent   

- with a carpet of fir boughs inside.    

If you are setting up a tent, you should get it done before dark so you can see how to weave the evergreen boughs together to make a warm and comfortable flooring. This tent is almost ready, although the tent stove is not yet in place, as night sets in.

Willow Pollen     

Pussywillow Buds Sprout Into Pollen     

- creating strange new flowers.    

Not-quite dark and not-quite a silhouette, these willow buds stand out against a dusky sky.       

Everything Looks Different at Night - Day 20

Sunset Clouds     

Sunset Over the River    

- and the clouds and the distant shore are disappearing into the darkness.    

Sunset can be a disorienting time of day, when the familiar shapes of distant hills become a dark mass and when clouds loom low and heavy with shadows. Sunset forces us to pay attention in different ways than we do in full daylight.
