    Both excellent photos. On the one [above the pre-emptive peacekeeping] you mentioned it was a longer exposure giving that misty effect. Was that created by the ripples on the water?

    I took this shot at dusk. This is the lift bridge below the Burlington skyway. This is the pier into the Hamilton Harbour. I'm still working on my night technique. I got a few tips from Durka, but I have a long way to go. The channel between Lake Ontario and Hamilton Harbour. Rule of...
