Yellow on Blue

This is Parkamoor jetty on Coniston taken about 45 minutes after sunset on Sunday. As often happens here, post sunset the sky was a bright, clear blue which was reflected in the water giving the whole scene a blue tone. I took a few shots and was looking for something a bit different so used my mini Maglight to illuminate the yellow gorse flowers.

	EyeWest said: It would have been a fab shot without the gorse, so you've added another dimension very well and cleverly with the use of a torch. Inspiring stuff. Congrats. 09:52 on March 20, 2008

	martin_hurton said: Great use of a simple technique, well thought and well captured. A well deserved POTD. I would like to see a more traditional shot also, without the gorse bush, as I personally think it's such a wonderful scene on it's own. 10:12 on March 20, 2008

	falchion said: Great shot - love the maglite lit flowers. 10:17 on March 20, 2008
	Creative Reign Photography said: Abrilliant image ... Love the tone and framing. I take it a closed aperture was used to give strong sharp background and sharp forground detail. The lighting is superb and a high quality finish Well Done Steve Mortada Creative Reign Photography 10:29 on March 20, 2008

	dathersmith said: Thanks for the kind words everyone, very much appreciated. A few have suggested that a more traditional image would also be good and as I live fairly close to this location I do indeed have a few. There are one or two others in my gallery already but I may post a more 'traditional' shot some time soon, will have a look and see what I can dig out. Thanks again everyone. 10:47 on March 20, 2008
