Nyhavn sunset (Copenhagen, Denmark)

A few nights back we stumbled upon a full moon over Nyhavn. Last night was this sunset.

After weeks of hit-and-miss (mostly miss) weather, Copenhagen has been beautiful the past week. Everyone is out and about. The picnic table far below my bedroom window is getting a workout.

Today’s photo was taken three days before Ronnie James Dio’s birthday earlier this week.

“No sign of the morning coming
You’ve been left on your own…”

Today I’m in Prague for the first time ever.

The typical shot of Nyhavn has been done a billion times. And why not? It’s a pretty one. But I’ve done that photo several times over so I went for something a little different here with this 6-photo photomerge. The tourists were numerous on this day so I had to a wait a while to get a foreground that was this free of walking people.

Today my new Nikon D750 will arrive. Today’s photo was taken shortly after I purchased my first DSLR back in 2011. The faults with this photo were not the camera’s. They were because of my own ignorance. I didn’t understand aperture, shutter speed, or ISO. This photo would have looked much better if I had shot it in RAW at f/8 with a low ISO. So now I need to go back to Copenhagen with my new knowledge and new camera. Maybe next summer?
