Hi.

OK, I was sure I had set up Apple Mail to only send plaintext  
messages, but as it turns out, I had not. So maybe this is going to  
work now. I'll give it a try.

I've been experimenting a little with available light pictures at  
night without a tripod. Mainly because I don't have a tripod and  
because I know that if I did I'd never bring it anywhere. I got the  
best results kneeling, leaning against something solid, pressing the  
arms tight against my body, breathing out and then holding my breath -  
like shooting a rifle. This is the best I managed to come up with  
(K200D with 40mm Ltd., handheld at 1 second, f/2.8, ISO 400, slightly  
tweaked in LR).

You can see a larger version by substituting "large" for "medium" in  
the url. Comments, suggestions and tips on how to improve this are  
very welcome.

Oh, by the way, this is the harbour in Hoorn at night, picture taken  
from our ship, about four weeks ago. It was snowing at the time. Hoorn  
is a small town in North Holland where the first sailor to sail around  
Cape Hoorn and actually survive came from, so Cape Hoorn is named  
after this beautiful little town.


Thanks,
Marcus
