UVIVF by the pond

[Andy Perrin]

This is the edge of Chandler Pond in Boston, illuminated by a Nemo torch, captured with an A7III (unconverted) with a Tiffen Haze 2E filter (420nm cutoff) and EL-Nikkor 80mm lens. I focused by live view. Minimal natural light was present, since I was deep in the weeds. Exposure is unknown, since I couldn't read the F-number in the dark! But it was ISO6400 30sec. Daylight WB was used and not altered. Topaz sharpening and denoising were applied. Other than that just normal contrast adjustments.

 

 

The shadows caused by the floating weeds give it an interesting 3D appearance.

Well that made it a bit more pleasant to be in it.

Seems that you got the blue color of the pond water as in my recent  Blue lagoon ( https://www.ultravioletphotography.com/content/index.php?/topic/5437-blue-lagoon-spring-melt-in-uvivf ) thread. I my case I adjusted WB up to remove excessive blue at 8000K in CNX-D, which can explain the cooler color of your water that works well with the red.

Neat color to it, I need to try this sometime.

So this must be the chlorophyll in the green weeds which is fluorescing.

It does indeed look 3D-ish. Interesting!

Lovely image with spectacular colors. Calming to view. It would look great printed large and hanging on a wall. Wouldn't have guessed floating plants would be so colorful.

 

Thanks for sharing,
