Angers fountain blue hour 2012-08-12 214438 hdr

Yesterday I promised a blue hour shot of the fountain, here it is. I was not used to tripods, but this time I'm happy to have carried with me a lot of camera gear for all the day.
We had a very long walk that day and we were very tired, but when we saw that little fountain (little because it was very far!) we decided to make another effort (even if the hotel was in the opposite direction). Well, it was definitely worth the pain ;)

This is my first "blue-hour-tripod-hdr-shot". I took several pictures of this fountain and tried different composition (symmetric and not symmetric), I like this one, but I will share also a non-symmetric composition later.

I normally don't have the possibility to shoot during blue hours, and this is a real pity because the light is magic!

Let's stop writing, hope you enjoy this shot as I do.
