Flowing to Darkness

Description

Went shooting with a friend and he showed me this neat place.
Too bad my tripod was broken so I had only my small tripod(~15cm) with me which really isn't designed to big cameras...
Anyways I'm pretty happy how this came out.
Basically had to use my tripod as monopod and hold it still for 30 secs.. managed pretty well but messed up the focus as it was so bloody dark that I basically had to guess the focus...
Anyways I hope you like it

Oh btw those are clouds, not northern lights!

sharpness&contrast adjusted a bit in PSP and added borders.

Fullview is a must!

You said you can't get it any larger right? My advice to you would be print it and take it to somewhere near you that does film development (a photo center of sorts), since you live in Finland, I can't really give examples of places I would suggest going to, but most of those film specialists offer to enlarge images. My aunt did it for a picture of my uncle after he died, the image came out perfect.

As for the pictures, the lighting is incredible; the time of day, the perfect timing and placement of the clouds, the dark waters with the edges reflecting lights that seem to get swallowed up the further down you go, the towering trees making the viewer feel smaller, and the ice, all come together to set a mood for the image. It is just amazing!!
