This image was taken in December 2009 during a full moon at Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe, CA. This was an image that was a combination of three images (HDR) plus a smoothing filter to help to add some more magic to this already amazing scene. Photo taken by Justin Baer (États-Unis) - Artistic/Creative

I was looking for something special to do with Chinese Lanterns, and while cleaning out a friend's garden I came across these - all withered and dried up. Immediately I thought of doing something creative with one of them and I took them to my basement studio. Using a glass bottom to get the reflection I started snapping away until I got the image that I wanted. I made minor contrast adjustments, but this is right out of the camera.
