Before the Dawn

Night is coming to an end, we have finished up our current exploration of Night Photography. Your explorating shouldn't stop now, however. Armed with the info I've shared you are ready to continue your photography into the night.

Take some time to explore the links below and the Flickr pool. There are so many great interpretations of "Night" to be found. Today I chose Dina's wonderful point of view on the chandelier, to remind us night isn't all about outside, interesting images are to be found with the inside lights too. Below, Brenda used the blue hour to great effect as contrast for the red beams, and Deborah reminds us of the beauty of a summer evening. I can almost feel the evening breeze and see the views from that ferris wheel. Gorgeous.

Tomorrow it's time to begin a new exploration. No more "second edition" Exploring with a Camera posts, it's time to go back to school and get back to routine. I've been surprised at how much I enjoyed revisiting the "second edition" topics with you all this summer, so I may do that once in a while for fun. For now though, I have new things to explore. Come back tomorrow and see!

Finally, don't you want to know who won the giveaway?

The nighttime views of the world are quite varied! I hope you are having fun exploring Night Photography right now. You can tell the folks in the Flickr pool are! I had a hard time choosing a couple to share today. 

We have another week of exploring the night, so you can still get out late in the evening or early in the morning and show us what the night looks like in your area. You can link in below or share your images in the Exploring with a Camera Flickr pool until the end of the day Tuesday, August 30.
