This is a vertical lift drawbridge across the Tennessee River that allows large vessels to pass through such as barges. I took this back in summer before daylight. I set my time for 30 seconds at F22 and 100 ISO. It produced a rather smooth coffee looking appearance which I really like. The lights from the city added some nice reflective quality to it. Didn't have to touch this picture up for it came out the way I wanted from the camera. I only re-sized it.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

This is such a beautiful image, Frank... the light browns punctuated by the golds and ice whites of the lights make this scene a study in meditation...

Perfect lighting in this one Frank, so enhancing the already wonderful tones and the reflections. Very moody too!

Regards, Cornelius.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
