A nearby swamp/pond, shot in very little light, and with a little fog too.

(by the way, I know it's a little "spotty", I don't think all of the pixels exposed correctly from lack of light.)

OMG this is so cool. Do you mind if I fool around in Photoshop a little to try to minimize the grain?

As it is, it's practically direct off the camera. I thought the blue tint was just too cool to lose. :)
Only difference is that I dropped the file size from the original ~1.2meg. I didn't try to fix the graininess, well, basically, I haven't had the time. But if you want to try, feel free.
As for where it is, you'd never know, (yes, it's that small of a town) but it's in a fairly rural area near Albany, NY. (Closer to the NY/MA/VT Border)
Lacking a tripod, I had to brace the camera on a tree to keep from shaking during the exposure.
Thanks for the comments!

Nice..I'm glad to see you used the trees as a natural border to "emcompass" or package the view into the swamp....Great eye!

That place got to be cold. Must be the water frozen. Good shot.

always try your best. Look at my new picture Spike`s connections.
It would be a awsome picture if it did not make my eyes water to look at it.

Hehe, funny you mention that, Keith. I was down there tonight taking photos in the dark, and just as I was about to finish up, something large started splashing around in the water. Needless to say, in the dark, alone, I left in a hurry. Thinking back, it was probably something small like a beaver, but when you can't see more than a few feet, that adrenaline takes over... :)

The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them into the impossible. - Arthur C. Clarke, "Technology and the Future"
I really like this image. It's dark, errie and mysterious. Great capture, nice framing. I think it makes a perfect desktop. Not too dark at all, it's just right. 10/10 favs.
