Torch in a Puddle

Another photo of a Malkoff, this one a M61T MD2.  I positioned the tripod to optimize the reflection of the cloud cover on the surface of the water.  Naked lens (no filters used).

Canon 50D, EF 100 USM Macro, manual focus, 1/4 second @ f/8, manual exposure control, ISO 100, 10-second timer on a tripod.

Jim, for me it's about the support of the cloud reflections here. They along with the water leave a neat softness around the ridged hardware of the LED unit. The semi-submerged light would make a strong selling point for the water tight Malkoff overall in this a bit unique scene. Another nice idea using the extra prop of the classy looking LED gear.......laugh
