    Graving Dock #2 | Yacht Express

    The 'v' painted on the hull made for an interesting reflection; slipped out to get a few shots, the Sparkman Channel is beautiful on a calm night...

    Very interesting boat. It looks strange for me; I've never seen such a "boat shape"; For what purpose is this ship intended? could be to carry some boat? Anyway, regarding the pictures, I love the "pure white" of the strong "lightspots"! What is the setting for the white balance? Usually, the streetlights (here the docklights) are prettymuch orange/yellow, but here it comes really white. Pully good

    Thanks, appreciate the feedback. You bet, it's a boat transport. I'm shooting RAW so the white balance was set to AUTO; didn't end up straying from 5000K.

    Here's the histo:
